CD32 Antibody / FCGR2A

Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor II-a, also called CD32, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FCGR2A gene. This gene encodes one member of a family of immunoglobulin Fc receptor genes found on the surface of many immune response cells. It is mapped to 1q23.3. The protein encoded by this gene is a cell surface receptor found on phagocytic cells such as macrophages and neutrophils, and is involved in the process of phagocytosis and clearing of immune complexes. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
