  2. Multiple myeloma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_myeloma

    IgD and IgE myeloma are very rare. In addition, light and or heavy chains (the building blocks of antibodies) may be secreted in isolation: κ- or λ-light chains or any of the five types of heavy chains (α-, γ-, δ-, ε- or μ-heavy chains). People without evidence of a monoclonal protein may have "nonsecretory" myeloma (not producing ...

  3. Myosin light chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myosin_light_chain

    Structurally, myosin light chains belong to the EF-hand family, a large family of Ca 2+ - binding proteins. MLCs contain two Ca 2+ - binding EF-hand motifs. MLCs isoforms modulate the Ca 2+ of force transduction and cross-bridge kinetics. Myosin light chains (MLCs) can be broadly classified into two groups: Essential or alkali MLC (MLC1 or ELC),

  4. Light chain deposition disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_chain_deposition_disease

    Light chain deposition disease can affect any organ. [3] Renal involvement is always present and can be identified by microscopic hematuria and proteinuria.Due to the gradual buildup of light chains from plasma filtration, renal function rapidly declines in the majority of patients with LCDD as either acute tubulointerstitial nephritis or rapidly progressing glomerulonephritis.

  5. Plasma cell dyscrasias - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cell_dyscrasias

    Light chain multiple myeloma is diagnosed in patients who have: a) the criteria for diagnosis of multiple myeloma except having a serum free light chain ratio outside the normal range of 0.26 to 1.65 without evidence of an intact immunoglobulin or free heavy chain; or b) an extreme free light chain ratio, i.e. outside the range of 0.02 to 100 ...

  6. AL amyloidosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AL_amyloidosis

    AL amyloidosis is caused by the deposition of abnormal antibody free light chains. The abnormal light chains are produced by monoclonal plasma cells, and, although AL amyloidosis can occur without diagnosis of another disorder, it is often associated with other plasma cell disorders, such as multiple myeloma and Waldenström's macroglobulinemia.

  7. MYL6B - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MYL6B

    Myosin light chain 6B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MYL6B gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Myosin is a hexameric ATPase cellular motor protein . It is composed of two heavy chains , two nonphosphorylatable alkali light chains , and two phosphorylatable regulatory light chains.
