Description
This gene encodes one member of a family of immunoglobulin Fc receptor genes found on the surface of many immune response cells. 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.
Form
Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.5, 5 % trehalose, 5% mannitol and 0.01% Tween80.
Molecular Mass
The recombinant human CD32a/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein. The reduced monomer consists of 426 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 47.3 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rh CD32a/Fc monomer is approximately 55 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
