Joining chain of multimeric IgA and IgM ; IGCJ ; IGJ
Categories
Elisa
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.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Human Immunoglobulin J chain
