Facts about Immunoglobulin kappa joining 1.
In the recognition phase of humoral immunity, the membrane-bound immunoglobulins function as receptors that, upon binding of a specific antigen, trigger the clonal expansion and differentiation of B lymphocytes to immunoglobulins-secreting plasma cells. Secreted immunoglobulins mediate the effector stage of humoral immunity, which causes the elimination of bound antigens (PubMed:22158414, PubMed:20176268).
