| Gene Summary |
Enables antigen binding activity. Involved in B cell differentiation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity; phagocytosis; and positive regulation of immune response. Located in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Part of immunoglobulin complex, circulating. Is active in cytoplasm. Orthologous to several human genes including IGHG1 (immunoglobulin heavy constant gamma 1 (G1m marker)); IGHG2 (immunoglobulin heavy constant gamma 2 (G2m marker)); and IGHG3 (immunoglobulin heavy constant gamma 3 (G3m marker)). |
