Specifications
Target Information
Beta-2-microglobulin is encoded by the B2M gene in cats. It is a component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). It is involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system. Glomerular-filtered Beta-2-microglobulin is reabsorbed and broken down in the proximal convoluted tubules. Dysfunction in this process can indicate kidney disease, as evidenced by the presence of Beta-2-microglobulin in urinary protein due to the absence of endocytosis mediated by the megalin-cubilin complex.
