The antibody reacts with the epitope on CD16 antigen that residing in proximity to FG loop (probably BC or C'E loop). CD16 is a low affinity receptor for aggregated IgG (FcgRIII antigen). The antibody reacts with CD16+ granulocytes.
Flow Cytometry: 5-10 mg/mL. Positive control: PBL (peripheral blood lymphocytes). Application note: The antibody MEM-154 does not react with CD16a present on NK cells in many subjects. Immunoprecipitation. Western Blotting (Non-reducing conditions). Functional Application: The antibody MEM-154 blocks binding of human IgG to FcgRIII. Other applications not tested. Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.
Store the antibody at 2 - 8 °C up to one month or (in aliquots) at -20 °C for longer. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Shelf Life: one year from despatch.

背景
CD16 (FcgRIII) is a 50-65 kDa glycoprotein serving as a low affinity IgG receptor. Human FcgRIII is expressed in two forms FcgRIII-A and -B. FcgRIII-A is a transmembrane protein of monocytes, macrophages, NK cells and a subset of T cells. It is associated with FceRI-g subunit and is responsible for antibody-dependent NK cell cytotoxicity. Mast cell FcgRIII-A is associated, moreover, with FceRI-b subunit. Besides IgG, FceRI-A can be triggered also by oligomeric IgE. FcgRIII-B is a GPI-linked monomeric receptor expressed on neutrophils and is involved in their activation and induction of a proadhesive phenotype.Synonyms: CD16A, FCG3, FCGR3, FCGR3A, Fc-gamma RIII, Fc-gamma RIII-alpha, Fc-gamma RIIIa, FcR-10, FcRIII, FcRIIIa, IGFR3, IgG Fc receptor III-2, Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor III-A
