  • Title: This little pIgR went to the mucosa.
    Author: Strong RK.
    Journal: Structure; 2004 Nov; 12(11):1919-20. PubMed ID: 15530354.
    Abstract:
    In this issue, we report the structure of the terminal domain of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR), which mediates the "suicide" transcytosis of multimeric immunoglobulins (IgA, IgM). This assists in reconciling decades of biochemistry, revealing a long-puzzling interaction.
