[[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IGHA2_HUMAN IGHA2_HUMAN]] Ig alpha is the major immunoglobulin class in body secretions. It may serve both to defend against local infection and to prevent access of foreign antigens to the general immunologic system. [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IGJ_HUMAN IGJ_HUMAN]] Serves to link two monomer units of either IgM or IgA. In the case of IgM, the J chain-joined dimer is a nucleating unit for the IgM pentamer, and in the case of IgA it induces larger polymers. It also help to bind these immunoglobulins to secretory component.[UniProtKB:P01592] [[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/PIGR_HUMAN PIGR_HUMAN]] This receptor binds polymeric IgA and IgM at the basolateral surface of epithelial cells. The complex is then transported across the cell to be secreted at the apical surface. During this process a cleavage occurs that separates the extracellular (known as the secretory component) from the transmembrane segment.
