Product Type
Fc Silent Antibody
Description
The antibody Fc domain is responsible for the function in the antibody, while the Fab domain is responsible for targeting. Therefore, Fc engineering represents the engineering function of antibodies, which are effector functions, such as antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP), and control the serum half-life. Therefore, Fc engineering for immune silencing or further protein engineering is essential for immune cell binding to antibodies.
The Fc-silenced antibody provided by Creative Biolabs contains key point mutations that eliminate the binding of Fc receptors (FcγR, FcR), thereby eliminating the cytotoxic (ADCC) effector function of the antibody.

Official Name
MS4A1
Full Name
membrane spanning 4-domains A1
Background
This gene encodes a member of the membrane-spanning 4A gene family. Members of this nascent protein family are characterized by common structural features and similar intron/exon splice boundaries and display unique expression patterns among hematopoietic cells and nonlymphoid tissues. This gene encodes a B-lymphocyte surface molecule which plays a role in the development and differentiation of B-cells into plasma cells. This family member is localized to 11q12, among a cluster of family members. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants which encode the same protein.
