FCGR2A


Description

The FCGR2A (Fc gamma receptor IIa) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1.

FCGR2A, also known as CD32, is a protein encoded by the FCGR2A gene in humans. It's a low affinity receptor for immunoglobulin gamma (IgG) and interacts with proteins like PIK3R1 and Syk. The information about FCGR2A is publicly available in the U.S. National Library of Medicine and the Protein Data Bank.

FCGR2A, also known as CDw32, Fc-gamma RII-a, binds to the Fc region of immunoglobulin G (IgG) with low affinity. This interaction triggers cellular responses against pathogens and soluble antigens, including the promotion of phagocytosis of opsonized antigens.

FCGR2A is also known as CD32, CD32A, CDw32, FCG2, FCGR2, FCGR2A1, FcGR, FcgammaRIIa, IGFR2.
