Background Information
CD72 is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein of 39-45 kDa and is expressed as a disulphide-linked homodimer (PMID: 1711157). CD72 is a pan B-cell marker covering the full range of differentiation from the very early stages of B cells to mature surface Ig+ B cells (PMID: 1384316). It is expressed in all stages of B cell development except plasma cells. CD72 is also expressed by dendritic cells, tissue macrophages in the red pulp of the spleen and von Kupffer cells in the liver (PMID: 8561576; 1384316). CD72 is the ligand for CD5 (PMID: 1711157). CD72 is a negative regulator of BCR signaling (PMID: 9590210). Interaction of CD100 with CD72 strictly tunes the strength of BCR signals and is essential for maintaining immunological homeostasis as well as generating a proper immune response (PMID: 16113236).
