Supplementary information

Lambda Light Chain also known as lambda chain or lambda protein forms a part of immunoglobulins (antibodies). Its mass typically ranges between 22 to 24 kDa. This protein is expressed primarily in B cells. Specifically it pairs with heavy chains to form the complete antibody molecule. It participates in the antigen recognition process supporting the immune system's defense mechanisms.
Biological function summary

Lambda Light Chain participates in immunological functions by contributing to the antigen-binding site of antibodies. It exists as a part of the immunoglobulin complex. The lambda chain alongside heavy chains forms the variable part of antibodies allowing specificity in antigen recognition. Its variation leads to a diverse antibody repertoire which is important for recognizing a wide range of pathogens.

Pathways

Lambda Light Chain fits into pathways involving adaptive immune responses. It is important in antigen processing and presentation pathways. In this context it interacts with the heavy chains which together drive the specificity and efficiency of immune response pathways. It also associates with proteins like the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) which facilitates antigen presentation to T cells.

Lambda Light Chain associates with multiple myeloma a cancer of plasma cells and light chain amyloidosis a disorder where light chains accumulate as amyloid fibrils in tissues. In these conditions proteins like immunoglobulin heavy chain and albumin often interact with or are affected by lambda chains providing insights into disease mechanisms and potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Target data

Constant region of immunoglobulin light chains. Immunoglobulins, also known as antibodies, are membrane-bound or secreted glycoproteins produced by B lymphocytes. In the recognition phase of humoral immunity, the membrane-bound immunoglobulins serve as receptors which, upon binding of a specific antigen, trigger the clonal expansion and differentiation of B lymphocytes into immunoglobulins-secreting plasma cells. Secreted immunoglobulins mediate the effector phase of humoral immunity, which results in the elimination of bound antigens (PubMed : 20176268, PubMed : 22158414). The antigen binding site is formed by the variable domain of one heavy chain, together with that of its associated light chain. Thus, each immunoglobulin has two antigen binding sites with remarkable affinity for a particular antigen. The variable domains are assembled by a process called V-(D)-J rearrangement and can then be subjected to somatic hypermutations which, after exposure to antigen and selection, allow affinity maturation for a particular antigen (PubMed : 17576170, PubMed : 20176268).
