Overview

Product Description FITC-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal antibody [KD1] recognizes CD16
Mouse anti Human CD16 antibody, clone KD1 recognizes human CD16, a 50-65 kDa cell surface molecule, which is the low affinity receptor for IgG (FcR III). CD16 exists as a transmembranous form (Fc gammaRIIIA, or CD16A) and a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchored form (Fc gammaRIIIB, or CD16B). CD16A is expressed by NK cells, some T cells, and macrophages (Moretta et al. 1990), whereas CD16B is primarily expressed by granulocytes (Bonecchi et al. 1999). Clone KD1 recognizes both forms of CD16 and will therefore recognize all cell types expressing CD16. Mouse anti Human CD16, clone KD1 can be used to identify CD16 in a range of species including bovine (Boysen et al. 2010) and ovine (Elhmouzi-Younes et al. 2010).

GeneID: 2214 Human FCGR3A

Swiss-port # P08637 Human Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor III-A

Gene Symbol FCGR3A
Gene Full Name Fc fragment of IgG, low affinity IIIa, receptor (CD16a)
Background This gene encodes a receptor for the Fc portion of immunoglobulin G, and it is involved in the removal of antigen-antibody complexes from the circulation, as well as other other antibody-dependent responses. This gene (FCGR3A) is highly similar to another nearby gene (FCGR3B) located on chromosome 1. The receptor encoded by this gene is expressed on natural killer (NK) cells as an integral membrane glycoprotein anchored through a transmembrane peptide, whereas FCGR3B is expressed on polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) where the receptor is anchored through a phosphatidylinositol (PI) linkage. Mutations in this gene have been linked to susceptibility to recurrent viral infections, susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus, and alloimmune neonatal neutropenia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Receptor for the Fc region of IgG. Binds complexed or aggregated IgG and also monomeric IgG. Mediates antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and other antibody-dependent responses, such as phagocytosis. [UniProt]

Calculated MW 29 kDa
PTM Glycosylated. Contains high mannose- and complex-type oligosaccharides. Glycosylation at Asn-180 is mandatory for high affinity binding to the Fc and for discrimination between fucosylated and afucosylated IgG glycoforms.

The soluble form is produced by a proteolytic cleavage. [UniProt]
