CD22 also known as Siglec-2 or B-lymphocyte cell adhesion molecule (BL-CAM) is a transmembrane protein with a mass of around 140 kDa. It is selectively expressed on the surface of mature B cells and some immature B cells. This protein plays an important role in the immune system particularly in the regulation of B cell function. CD22 functions by modulating signal transduction processes through its cytoplasmic domain which contains immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs).
Biological function summary
CD22 acts mainly as a negative regulator of B cell receptor (BCR) signaling. It is part of a complex that interacts with the BCR and other accessory molecules. CD22 helps maintain B cell tolerance by inhibiting overactive signaling and preventing autoimmune responses. By binding to sialic acid-containing glycans CD22 modulates interactions between B cells and other cells aiding in the maintenance of immune homeostasis.
Pathways
CD22 plays a critical role in the BCR signaling pathway and the regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling. It works together with proteins like CD19 and SHP-1 that are key components of these pathways. By influencing these signaling cascades CD22 contributes to the modulation of B cell activation proliferation and apoptosis ensuring proper functioning of the immune response.
CD22 is associated with autoimmune conditions and hematological malignancies such as hairy cell leukemia (HCL). Therapeutic approaches targeting CD22 such as anti-CD22 antibodies are being explored for treating these diseases. CD22's role in these conditions is connected with proteins involved in the autoimmune pathways or cancer development offering potential therapeutic targets for intervention.
