Background Information | CD16 (FcγRIII) is a 50-65 kDa glycoprotein serving as a low affinity IgG receptor. Human FcγRIII is expressed in two forms - FcγRIIIA and FcγRIIIB. FcγRIIIA is a transmembrane protein of monocytes, macrophages, NK cells and a subset of T cells. It is associated with FcεRI-γ subunit and is responsible for antibody-dependent NK cell cytotoxicity. Mast cell FcγRIIIA is associated, moreover, with FcεRI-β subunit. Besides IgG, FcγRIIIA can be triggered also by oligomeric IgE. FcγRIIIB is a GPI-linked monomeric receptor expressed on neutrophils and is involved in their activation and induction of a proadhesive phenotype. |
