Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** MS4A1 is a membrane-spanning 4-domains A1 protein, comprising four extracellular domains and a single transmembrane domain. The protein is highly expressed on the surface of B cells, where it serves as a key component of the B-cell receptor complex. The gene's expression is restricted to B cells, with minimal or no expression in other cell types. Notably, MS4A1 is the only gene among the CD20 family members that is restricted to B cells, making it a unique marker for B-cell identification. **Pathways and Functions:** MS4A1 is involved in multiple signaling pathways, including: 1. **B-cell activation**: MS4A1 is required for the activation of B cells in response to antigens, facilitating the initiation of the humoral immune response. 2. **B-cell receptor signaling pathway**: The protein plays a crucial role in the signaling cascade initiated by the B-cell receptor, regulating downstream events such as calcium influx and gene expression. 3. **Calcium ion import into cytosol**: MS4A1 is involved in the regulation of calcium ion influx into the cytosol, which is essential for B-cell activation and function. 4. **Protein tetramerization**: The protein can form tetramers with other B-cell surface receptors, such as CD19 and CD21, modulating their signaling properties. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of MS4A1 has been implicated in various B-cell-related disorders, including: 1. **Non-Hodgkin lymphoma**: MS4A1 expression is often reduced or lost in non-Hodgkin lymphoma cells, making it a potential target for therapeutic interventions. 2. **Autoimmune diseases**: MS4A1 has been shown to play a role in the regulation of B-cell responses in autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus. 3. **Infectious diseases**: The protein's involvement in B-cell activation and function makes it a potential target for the development of vaccines and immunotherapies against infectious diseases. In conclusion, MS4A1 is a critical component of the B-cell receptor complex, playing a pivotal role in the development, activation, and function of B lymphocytes. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various B-cell-related disorders, highlighting the importance of further research into the gene's function and potential therapeutic applications.
