The following gene names and symbols are associated with antigen Immunoglobulin M across different species:

immunoglobulin heavy chain 6 (heavy chain of IgM) (Igh-6)

Other aliases include:

Igm, muH, IGHM, Igh6, Igh-M, AI326478, MGC107036, MGC107507

Immunoglobulin M fulfills a number of functions:

antigen binding – protein binding – transmembrane receptor activity

Immunoglobulin M is relevant to the following processes:

B cell receptor signaling pathway – activation of MAPK activity – antigen processing and presentation – early endosome to late endosome transport – humoral immune response mediated by circulating immunoglobulin – immunoglobulin mediated immune response – positive regulation of B cell activation – positive regulation of B cell proliferation – positive regulation of MAPKKK cascade – positive regulation of endocytosis – positive regulation of peptidyl-tyrosine phosphorylation

Locations for Immunoglobulin M:

B cell receptor complex – external side of plasma membrane – extracellular region – immunoglobulin complex, circulating – integral to membrane – membrane – perinuclear region of cytoplasm – plasma membrane
