Receptors for Fc portion of IgG (Fcγ Rs) are members of the Ig superfamily, and are divided into three classes designated Fcγ RI (CD64), Fcγ RII (CD32), and Fcγ RIII (CD16). CD32 protein is a low affinity receptor for IgG that binds only IgG immune complexes and is expressed on a diverse range of cells such as monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, platelets, and B cells. Human CD32 class is encoded by three closely related genes, and designated Fcγ RII A, B, and C which share 94-99% amino acid identity in their extracellular domains but differ substantially in their transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains. CD32 is involved in a number of immune responses including antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity, clearance of immune complexes, release of inflammatory mediators, and regulation of antibody production.
1. Measured by its ability to bind human IgG1 in a functional ELISA.2. Labeling ratio of biotin to protein: 0.5
Endotoxin:
<1.0 EU per µg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
Protein Construction:
A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met 1-Arg 217) of mouse FGGR2B (NP_001070657.1) as fused with a c-terminal polyhistidine tagged AVI tag at the C-terminus. The expressed protein was biotinylated in vivo by the Biotin-Protein ligase (BirA enzyme) which is co-expressed.
