B-lymphocyte antigen CD20 or CD20 is B lymphocyte cell-surface molecule.

It is a 33-37 kDa non-glycosylated protein. CD20 is expressed on the surface of B-cells from the pre-B phase, the expression is lost in terminally differentiated plasma cells.[5][6]

CD20 is used as a therapeutical target of B-cell malignancies and autoimmune diseases.[6]
