Novel mechanisms control the folding and assembly of λ5/14.1 and VpreB to produce an intact surrogate light chain
16 Mar 1999
Abstract excerpt
Surrogate light chain, which escorts the mu heavy chain to the cell surface, is a critical component of the pre-B cell receptor complex. The two proteins that comprise the surrogate light chain, VpreB and lambda5/14.1, contain both unique regions and Ig-like domains. The unique regions have been postulated to function in the assembly of the surrogate light chain. However, by using transient transfection of COS7...
