Disease
[IGLL1_HUMAN] Defects in IGLL1 are the cause of agammaglobulinemia type 2 (AGM2) [MIM:613500]. It is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by profoundly low or absent serum antibodies and low or absent circulating B-cells due to an early block of B-cell development. Affected individuals develop severe infections in the first years of life.
Function
[VPREB_HUMAN] Associates with the Ig-mu chain to form a molecular complex that is expressed on the surface of pre-B-cells. This complex presumably regulates Ig gene rearrangements in the early steps of B-cell differentiation. [IGLL1_HUMAN] Critical for B-cell development.[1]
