Other Information

**Key Characteristics** IGLC2 is a member of the immunoglobulin constant family, which is responsible for encoding the variable and constant regions of antibodies. The λ chain is distinct from the κ chain in terms of its structure and function, and IGLC2 is the only gene that encodes the λ chain. The gene is composed of three exons, which are spliced together to form the mature λ chain. IGLC2 is expressed in a variety of cell types, including B cells, T cells, and certain types of neurons. **Pathways and Functions** IGLC2 plays a critical role in the adaptive immune response, particularly in the recognition and binding of antigens. The λ chain is involved in the activation of B cells through the B cell receptor (BCR), which is a complex of the BCR and the immunoglobulin molecule. Upon antigen binding, the BCR triggers a signaling cascade that leads to the activation of B cells and the production of antibodies. IGLC2 is also implicated in various immune-related pathways, including: 1. Complement activation: IGLC2 is involved in the regulation of complement activation, which is a crucial component of the innate immune response. 2. Phagocytosis: The λ chain is involved in the recognition and binding of pathogens by phagocytic cells, such as neutrophils and macrophages. 3. Leishmania infection: IGLC2 is specifically implicated in the response to Leishmania parasites, which are a type of protozoan that causes leishmaniasis. 4. Antigen recognition: IGLC2 is involved in the recognition and binding of antigens by B cells, which is critical for the initiation of the adaptive immune response. **Clinical Significance** IGLC2 has significant clinical implications, particularly in the context of infectious diseases. Mutations in the IGLC2 gene have been associated with impaired antibody production and increased susceptibility to infections. Additionally, IGLC2 is implicated in various autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. The gene is also of interest in the context of cancer, as alterations in the λ chain have been observed in certain types of tumors. In conclusion, IGLC2 is a critical gene that plays a vital role in the adaptive immune response, particularly in the recognition and binding of antigens. Its dysregulation can have significant clinical implications, particularly in the context of infectious diseases and autoimmune disorders. Further research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms by which IGLC2 regulates the immune response and to explore its therapeutic potential.
