Gene: FCMR

Alternate names for this Gene: FAIM3|TOSO

Gene Summary: Fc receptors specifically bind to the Fc region of immunoglobulins (Igs) to mediate the unique functions of each Ig class. FAIM3 encodes an Fc receptor for IgM (see MIM 147020) (Kubagawa et al., 2009 [PubMed 19858324]; Shima et al., 2010 [PubMed 20042454]).[supplied by OMIM, Jul 2010].

Gene is located in Chromosome: 1

Location in Chromosome : 1q32.1

Description of this Gene: Fc fragment of IgM receptor
