FCGRT is an IgG binding protein that is similar to the a chain of class I major histocompatibility complex proteins. FCGRT may be expressed in placental cells, epithelial cells of intestines and in the endothelial cells of capillaries. This protein regulates IgG transport in the placenta and also modulates IgG homeostasis . Anti-FCGRT antibody is specific for FCGRT in humans.
Synonyms: Anti-FcRn; Anti-IgG Fc fragment receptor transporter alpha chain; Anti-IgG receptor FcRn large subunit p51 precursor; Anti-Neonatal Fc receptor
Storage: -20C
Application: All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.
