Gene names: IGJ , IGCJ
Protein names and data: IGJ_HUMAN , Immunoglobulin J chain; Flags: Precursor Lenght: 159 a.a.
Mass: 18099 Da
fasta formatted sequence
Function: Serves to link two monomer units of either IgM or IgA. In the case of IgM, the J chain-joined dimer is a nucleating unit for the IgM pentamer, and in the case of IgA it induces larger polymers. It also help to bind these immunoglobulins to secretory component.
