CD19, also known as B4, is a transmembrane glycoprotein of the immunoglobulin superfamily that plays a central role in B cell activation and humoral immune responses (1, 2). CD19 consists of an extracellular domain (ECD) with two C2-type Ig-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic domain with nine tyrosine residues, 3 of which are critical for function (1, 2). Within the mature ECD, human CD19 shares 57% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat CD19. CD19 is expressed throughout B cell development from pre‑B cells through mature B cells, and it is commonly used as a B cell lineage marker (1, 2). It is required for the responsiveness of mature B cell to antigen stimulation, germinal center development, and antibody affinity maturation (1, 2). CD19 associates with the B cell antigen receptor (BCR), CD81, CD38, CD21, CD22, and IFITM1/CD225/Leu-13 (1, 3). These associations enable CD19 to amplify B cell signaling and reduce the threshold for antigen stimulation through the BCR (1, 3). CD19 polymorphisms and up-regulation can lead to the development of autoimmunity by promoting autoantibody production (2). CD19 has emerged as promising therapeutic target for hematologic cancers and solid tumors, such as leukemias and lymphomas (4, 5). Immunotherapy using a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) targeting CD19 has emerged as promising therapeutic target for hematologic cancers and solid tumors, such as leukemias and lymphomas (4, 5). The first CD19 CAR T cell therapies have been granted FDA approval for the treatment of B cell malignancies with several more in clinical trials (6).
