QuickView for FcRn (gene)


Gene Symbol:
FCGRT Homo sapiens Homo sapiens
Full name:
Fc fragment of IgG receptor and transporter
Synonyms:
FCRN, alpha-chain, IgG receptor FcRn large subunit p51, Fc fragment of IgG, receptor, transporter, alpha, FcRn alpha chain, IgG Fc fragment receptor transporter alpha chain, heavy chain of the major histocompatibility complex class I-like Fc receptor, immunoglobulin receptor, intestinal, heavy chain, major histocompatibility complex class I-like Fc receptor, neonatal Fc receptor, neonatal Fc-receptor for Ig, transmembrane alpha chain of the neonatal receptor
Genomic Location:
Chr 19: 54708304-54721402
Description:
This gene encodes a receptor that binds the Fc region of monomeric immunoglobulin G. The encoded protein transfers immunoglobulin G antibodies from mother to fetus across the placenta. This protein also binds immunoglobulin G to protect the antibody from degradation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
