Abstract excerpt
The V158F polymorphism found in the human Fc receptor CD16a (also known as FcγRIIIa) is thought to influence autoimmune disorders and responses to IgG-based therapies. V158F is known to influence the IgG affinity, and thereby triggering of the CD16a receptor expressed on various immune cells. In contrast to CD16 triggering by opsonized IgG, the mechanistic details of its interaction with soluble circulating IgG...
