Recombinant Rat Fcgr3a Protein(His tag) (RH0262FL)

Cat.No.

RH0262FL

Synonyms

FCGR3A; Fcgr4

Accession

Fcgr3a

Predicted N Terminal

Leu 22

Form

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4, 5 % trehalose and 5 % mannitol.

Bio-activity

Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized rat FCGR3A-His at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated human IgG1, The EC50 of biotinylated human IgG1 is 59.0-139.0 ng/ml.

Molecular Mass

Recombinant Rat FCGR3A comprises 190 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 21.7 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the Rat FCGR3A is approximately 28-33 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.

Endotoxin

< 1.0 EU per 1 microgram of protein (determined by LAL method).

Purity

> 97 % by SDS-PAGE.

Storage

In lyophilized state for 1 year (4°C); After reconstitution under sterile conditions for 3 months (-70°C). Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Reconstitution

Reconstitute in sterile distilled water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.

Warning

For research use only!

Background

CD16 is a low affinity Fc receptor, and has been identified as Fc receptors FcγRIIIa (CD16a) and FcγRIIIb (CD16b). These receptors bind to the Fc portion of IgG antibodies. CD16 encoded by two different highly homologous genes in a cell type-specific manner.CD16 is found on the surface of natural killer cells, neutrophil polymorphonuclear leukocytes, monocytes and macrophages. CD16a antigen is also known as Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor III-A, Fc-gamma RIII-alpha. CD16b is a low-affinity, GPI-linked receptor expressed by neutrophils and eosinophils, whereas CD16a is an intermediate affinity polypeptide-anchored transmembrane glycoprotein expressed natural killer cells, macrophages, subpopulation of T-cells, immature thymocytes and placentaltrophoblasts.CD16a is involved in phagocytosis, secretion of enzymes and inflammatory mediators, antibody­dependent cytotoxicity and clearance of immune complexes. Aberrant expression or mutations of CD16a is implicated in susceptibility to recurrent viral infections, systemic lupus erythematosus, and alloimmune neonatal neutropenia.
