General Information of HIF (ID: HIFM0105)
HIF Name
IgG receptor FcRn large subunit p51
HIF Synonym(s)
Fc fragment of IgG receptor and transporter, FCRN, alpha-chain
HIF Classification
Fc Receptor (FCR)
Molecular Function
IgG-binding protein; Receptor
Description FCGRT encodes the alpha-chain component of the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). FcRn is critical for the trafficking of endogenous and exogenous IgG molecules and albumin in various tissues. [1]
Pfam Class I Histocompatibility antigen, domains alpha 1 and 2 (PF00129 )
Immunoglobulin C1-set domain (PF07654 )
