FLASH GENE DNA RNA EXPRESSION PROTEIN DISORDER ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

PROTEIN

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

STRUCTURE

motifs/domains	a lectin "head," N-terminal "stalk," and C-terminal "tail" in the extracellular sequence
	a leucine zipper
	a transmembrane domain
	a short cytoplasmic tail
	a C-terminal lectin-like domain that resembles C-type carbohydrate-recognition domains (CRDs) found in many glycan-binding receptors

HOMOLOGY

Homologene

FAMILY

CATEGORY

immunity/defense , antigen

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	extracellular
	plasma membrane

basic FUNCTION	having essential roles in the regulation of Ige production and in the differentiation of B-cells (it is a B-cell-specific antigen)
	low affinity receptor for IgE and in B cells has been proposed to play a role in the regulation of IgE synthesis
	FCER2-mediated signal transduction pathways in human B cells and human monocytes are different
	low-affinity receptor for immunoglobulin (Ig)E and plays important roles in the regulation of IgE responses (
	FCER2-bound IgE augments and dominates recall responses through naive B cells
	when expressed on B cells, FCER2 appears to play a role in regulation of IgE synthesis
	role for FCER2 likely in many species as a receptor for potentially pathogenic microorganisms as well as IgE

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	DOCK10 negatively regulates membrane FCER2 expression, and negative regulation of FCER2 expression by DOCK10 could play a role in B cell maturation and function
	FCER2-mediated IgE transcytosis in the hair cells may play a critical role in initiating inflammation in the inner ear

REGULATION

Other	cleaved by a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10) and this cleavage influences the ability of FCER2 to regulate IgE
