Summary
Immunoglobulin light chains are part of the B-cell receptor and can therefore be considered as a pan B-cell marker - expressed from late lymphoblast stage until plasma cell differentiation.
If cells express predomnantly kappa or lambda (light chain restriction) then clonality can be inferred.
