IGLL1

Description

The IGLL1 gene, located on chromosome 22, encodes the immunoglobulin lambda-like polypeptide 1 protein. This protein plays a crucial role in B-cell development and function. It acts as a signaling molecule involved in B-cell activation, differentiation, and immunoglobulin production. IGLL1 is also implicated in various immune responses, including antibody production and immune regulation. Its complex interplay with other genes and proteins contributes to the intricate mechanisms underlying B-cell development and function.
