Immunoglobulin (IG)-like domain of of FcalphaRI
IG_FcalphaRI : immunoglobulin (IG)-like domain of of FcalphaRI. FcalphaRI (CD89) is an IgA-specific receptor that is expressed on monocytes, eosinophils, neutrophils and macrophages. FcalphaRI mediates IgA-induced immune effector responses such as phagocytosis, antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity and respiratory burst. Both monomeric and dimeric IgA can bind to FcalphaRI, and monomeric or dimeric IgA immune complexes can activate phagocytosis and other immune responses through the clustering of FcalphaRI. The Fc RI ectodomain is comprised of two Ig-like domains oriented at about 90 degree to each another.
