Query author contributions in Reactome

Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.

If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

commentFUNCTION Receptor for the Fc region of complexed or aggregated immunoglobulins gamma. Low affinity receptor. Involved in a variety of effector and regulatory functions such as phagocytosis of immune complexes and modulation of antibody production by B-cells. Binding to this receptor results in down-modulation of previous state of cell activation triggered via antigen receptors on B-cells (BCR), T-cells (TCR) or via another Fc receptor. Isoform IIB1 fails to mediate endocytosis or phagocytosis. Isoform IIB2 does not trigger phagocytosis.SUBUNIT Interacts with INPP5D/SHIP1. Interacts with FGR. Interacts with LYN. Interacts with the Fc region of IgG1, IgG3 and IgG4 isotypes assembled in immune complexes.SUBUNIT (Microbial infection) Isoform IIB1 interacts with measles virus protein N. Protein N is released in the blood following lysis of measles infected cells. This interaction presumably block inflammatory immune response.INTERACTION Is the most broadly distributed Fc-gamma-receptor. Expressed in monocyte, neutrophils, macrophages, basophils, eosinophils, Langerhans cells, B-cells, platelets cells and placenta (endothelial cells). Not detected in natural killer cells.DOMAIN Contains 1 copy of a cytoplasmic motif that is referred to as the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitor motif (ITIM). This motif is involved in modulation of cellular responses. The phosphorylated ITIM motif can bind the SH2 domain of several SH2-containing phosphatases.PTM Phosphorylated by the SRC-type Tyr-kinases LYN and BLK.POLYMORPHISM FCGR2B polymorphisms can influence susceptibility or resistance to malaria [MIM:611162].DISEASE Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.CAUTION Has sometimes been attributed to correspond to FcR-IIC.SEQUENCE CAUTION Truncated N-terminus.
