FCGR3A Human, Sf9

Source: Sf9, Baculovirus cells.Sterile filtered colorless solution.Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor III-A (FCGR3A) is a receptor for the Fc portion of immunoglobulin G, and is involved in the elimination of antigen-antibody complexes from the circulation, as well as other antibody-dependent responses. FCGR3A needs to associate with the gamma subunit of Fc epsilon. The FCGR3A receptor is expressed on natural killer (NK) cells as an integral membrane glycoprotein anchored through a transmembrane peptide, while FCGR3B is expressed on polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) where the receptor is anchored through a phosphatidylinositol (PI) linkage. In addition, FCGR3A is expressed on macrophages, subpopulation of T-cells, immature thymocytes and placental trophoblasts. FCGR3A mediates antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and other antibody-dependent responses, such as phagocytosis. FCGR3A gene mutations are linked with susceptibility to recurrent viral infections, susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus, and alloimmune neonatal neutropenia.FCGR3A Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 200 amino acids (18-208 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 22.8kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa) .FCGR3A is fused with a 6 amino acids His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
