Membrane Spanning 4-Domains Subfamily A Member 1 (None)

Target
None
Molecular classification
Membrane-spanning 4-domains subfamily A (MS4A), Transmembrane protein
01

Overview

CD20 is a non-glycosylated transmembrane protein expressed on B lymphocytes from the pre-B cell stage through mature stages, but not on early pro-B cells or terminally differentiated plasma cells. It plays a role in calcium flux and B-cell receptor signaling and is a major therapeutic target for monoclonal antibody therapies in hematological malignancies and autoimmune diseases.

Other names
CD20B-lymphocyte antigen CD20B-lymphocyte surface antigen B1Leukocyte surface antigen Leu-16
02

Mechanism of action

Antibody binding induces clustering/oligomerization that recruits complement proteins leading to targeted lysis of B-cells via complement-dependent cytotoxicity.
