B Cd20? guess

[preetin]

when i think of immunoglobins I think of B-cells
and then think of CD40 and CD 28

so i would put the answer as CD40.

but would like to know the correct answer

[GFLIP]

CD 40 is the right answer b/c....

When CD 40 (on B cells) binds with CD40 ligand (on Helper T cells), this activates B cells to proliferate... eventually into plasma cells that secrete Ig.
