Gene information for VPREB1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID7441
Official gene symbolVPREB1
Full namepre-B lymphocyte 1
Aliases,IGI,IGVPB,VPREB,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and is expressed selectively at the early stages of B cell development, namely, in proB and early preB cells. This gene encodes the iota polypeptide chain that is associated with the Ig-mu chain to form a molecular complex which is expressed on the surface of pre-B cells. The complex is thought to regulate Ig gene rearrangements in the early steps of B-cell differentiation. [provided by RefSeq]
