Gene information for FCGR2B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID2213
Official gene symbolFCGR2B
Full nameFc fragment of IgG, low affinity IIb, receptor (CD32)
Aliases,CD32,CD32B,FCG2,FCGR2,IGFR2,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a low affinity receptor for the Fc region of immunoglobulin gamma complexes. The encoded protein is involved in the phagocytosis of immune complexes and in the regulation of antibody production by B-cells. Variations in this gene may increase susceptibilty to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
