Abstract excerpt
The Fc region of therapeutic IgG antibodies is often engineered to remove or "silence" Fc effector functions, but it remains unclear whether these mutations eliminate all Fc-mediated effector activity. Human Fc receptor-like 5 (FCRL5/FcRH5) is a low-affinity IgG Fc receptor expressed on B cells and is an actively pursued antibody target in multiple myeloma. Here, we show that common Fc function-silencing...
