Identification
BMDB Protein ID BMDBP02590
Secondary Accession Numbers None
Name B-cell antigen receptor complex-associated protein alpha chain
Synonyms Not Available
Gene Name CD79A
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in protein binding
Specific Function Required in cooperation with CD79B for initiation of the signal transduction cascade activated by binding of antigen to the B-cell antigen receptor complex (BCR) which leads to internalization of the complex, trafficking to late endosomes and antigen presentation. Also required for BCR surface expression and for efficient differentiation of pro- and pre-B-cells. Stimulates SYK autophosphorylation and activation. Binds to BLNK, bringing BLNK into proximity with SYK and allowing SYK to phosphorylate BLNK. Also interacts with and increases activity of some Src-family tyrosine kinases. Represses BCR signaling during development of immature B-cells (By similarity).
