The HM57 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the cytoplasmic domain of CD79a. CD79a is a 47-kDa type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein present on B lymphocytes. CD79a is also referred to as mb-1, IGA and Ig-alpha (Ig-α). It is expressed on B cells at various stages of differentiation, from the pre-B cell stage, probably before expression of cytoplasmic μ chain, to the plasma cell stage, in which it is detected only in the cytoplasm. CD79a associates with CD79b to form part of the B-cell receptor complex. It has been suggested that CD79a may play a role in mediating the transport of IgM to the cell surface. This antibody reportedly may crossreact with monkey, mouse, rat, bovine, canine, chicken, equine, guinea pig, porcine, and rabbit CD79a.
