UniProt functional annotation for P31995

UniProt code: P31995.

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo.
 
Function: Receptor for the Fc region of complexed immunoglobulins gamma. Low affinity receptor. Involved in a variety of effector and regulatory functions such as phagocytosis of immune complexes and modulation of antibody production by B-cells.
 
Subcellular location: [Isoform IIC4]: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular location: [Isoform IIC3]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Subcellular location: [Isoform IIC2]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Subcellular location: [Isoform IIC1]: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Tissue specificity: Isoform IIC1 is detected in monocytes, macrophages, polymorphonuclear cells and natural killer cells.
Domain: Contains an intracytoplasmic twice repeated motif referred as immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activator motif (ITAM). These motifs are involved in triggering cell activation upon receptors aggregation.
Ptm: Phosphorylated by SRC-type Tyr-kinases such as LYN, BLK, FYN and SYK. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:8756631}.
Sequence caution: Sequence=CAA35643.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
