General description

High affinity immunoglobulin epsilon receptor subunit gamma (UniProt P20411; also known as Fc-epsilon RI-gamma, Fc receptor gamma-chain, FceRI gamma, FcR gamma, IgE Fc receptor subunit gamma) is encoded by the Fcer1g (also known as Fce1g) gene (Gene ID: 25441) in rat species. FceR1 gamma is a single-pass type I membrane protein that associates with a variety of FcR alpha chains to form a functional signaling complex that regulates several aspects of the immune response. The gamma subunit has a critical role in allowing the IgE Fc receptor to reach the cell surface. FceRI gamma is found exclusively on mast cells and basophils. In rodents Fc epsilon RI is a tetrameric complex of non-covalently attached subunits: one IgE-binding alpha subunit, one beta subunit and a dimer of disulfide-linked gamma subunits. When multivalent allergens bind to the receptor-bound IgE, the consequent aggregation of the receptors leads to the release of mediators responsible for allergic symptoms. (Ref.: Blank, U., et al. (1989). Nature 337(6203); 187-189).
