UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: IGHM_MOUSE (P01872)
Gene Name: Ighm
Synonyms: Igh-6
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Function: IgM antibodies play an important role in primary defense mechanisms. They have been shown to be involved in early recognition of external invaders like bacteria and viruses, cellular waste and modified self, as well as in recognition and elimination of precancerous and cancerous lesions (By similarity).
Other Modifications: View all modification sites in dbPTM
Protein Subcellular Localization: Isoform 1: Secreted (Probable). Note=During differentiation, B-lymphocytes switch from expression of membrane- bound IgM to secretion of IgM (Probable). Isoform 2: Cell membrane; Single-pass membrane protein (Potential).
