CD20 Molecule (CD20)

Target
CD20
Molecular classification
Transmembrane protein
01

Overview

CD20 is a non-glycosylated, B lymphocyte cell-surface protein expressed on B cells from the pre-B cell stage through maturity but absent on hematopoietic stem cells, pro-B cells, and terminally differentiated plasma cells. It plays roles in B-cell development, differentiation, and signal transduction. It is a therapeutic target in B-cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases.
