Background
CD16 is known as low affinity IgG receptor III (FcγRIII). It is expressed as two distinct forms (CD16a and CD16b). CD16a (FcγRIIIA) is a 50-65 kD polypeptide-anchored transmembrane protein. It is expressed on the surface of NK cells, activated monocytes, macrophages and placental trophoblasts in humans. CD16b (FcγRIIIB) is a 48 kD glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) -anchored protein. Its extracellular domain is over 95% homologous to that of CD16a and it is expressed specifically on neutrophils. CD16 binds aggregated IgG or IgG-Antigen complex which functions in NK cell activation, phagocytosis and Antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC).
