We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

They are involved in cellular signaling and cell cycle<ref>PMID:10961914</ref>. IGs contain α and β chain. IG subunits span the cell membrane. Both subunits bind divalent cations some of which bind the ligands which interact with IG. Some IGs contain an insertion domain named I domain.
