Functional B cell receptors are multi-protein complexes composed of antigen-binding subunits and signal transduction subunits. The B cell antigen receptor (BCR) is composed of cell membrane immunoglobulin (mIg) molecules and related Igα/Igβ (CD79a/CD79b) heterodimers (α/β). The mIg subunit binds to the antigen, leading to receptor aggregation, while the α/β subunit transmits the signal to the inside of the cell. After BCR accumulates, it rapidly activates the Src family kinases Lyn, Blk and Fyn, and the tyrosine kinases Syk and Btk.
