B2MG, Beta 2 microglobin, Beta 2 microglobulin, Beta-2-microglobulin form pI 5.3, CDABP0092, Hdcma22p
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class 1 molecules bind to antigens for presentation on the surface of cells. The proteasome is responsible for producing these antigens from the components of foreign pathogens. MHC class 1 molecules consist of an a heavy chain that contains three subdomains (alpha1, alpha2, alpha3), and a non-covalent associating light chain, known as beta-2-Microglobulin.
