FCRLB Gene

HGNC Family Immunoglobulin superfamily domain containing
Name Fc receptor-like B
Description FCRL2 belongs to the Fc receptor family. Fc receptors are involved in phagocytosis, antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity, immediate hypersensitivity, and transcytosis of immunoglobulins via their ability to bind immunoglobulin (Ig) constant regions (Chikaev et al., 2005 [PubMed 15676285]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]
Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n Fc receptor‐like B (FCRLB) is a member of the Fc receptor–like family that, in contrast to most of its transmembrane relatives, is expressed intracellularly in B lymphocytes. Although its molecular structure shows homology to the other FCRL proteins, FCRLB lacks a transmembrane domain, suggesting a unique cytosolic role. Gene targeting studies in mice have shown that while B cell development and in vitro B cell responses remain unaltered in the absence of FCRLB, antibody responses to T‐dependent antigens are enhanced (1). This observation implies that FCRLB may normally function to modulate or dampen the antibody response, likely contributing to the fine‐tuning of humoral immunity. However, it is noteworthy that the enhanced antibody response observed in these FCRLB‐deficient mice may also result from aberrant regulation of the nearby inhibitory FcγRIIb gene—whose altered promoter activity appears to accompany the mutant FCRLB allele—thereby complicating the interpretation of FCRLB’s precise immunoregulatory role (1). Overall, FCRLB appears to serve as an intracellular regulator in B cells that helps to maintain balanced antibody production, although further studies are required to clarify whether its effects are directly attributable to its own function or secondary to neighboring gene effects.\n "}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n (1)."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Keiji Masuda, Hiromi Mori, Osamu Ohara, et al.
