FGFR2

fibroblast growth factor receptor 2

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the fibroblast growth factor receptor family, where amino acid sequence is highly conserved between members and throughout evolution. FGFR family members differ from one another in their ligand affinities and tissue distribution. A full-length representative protein consists of an extracellular region, composed of three immunoglobulin-like domains, a single hydrophobic membrane-spanning segment and a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase domain. The extracellular portion of the protein interacts with fibroblast growth factors, setting in motion a cascade of downstream signals, ultimately influencing mitogenesis and differentiation. This particular family member is a high-affinity receptor for acidic, basic and/or keratinocyte growth factor, depending on the isoform. Mutations in this gene are associated with Crouzon syndrome, Pfeiffer syndrome, Craniosynostosis, Apert syndrome, Jackson-Weiss syndrome, Beare-Stevenson cutis gyrata syndrome, Saethre-Chotzen syndrome, and syndromic craniosynostosis. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.

This clone was generated using a stable CHO cell line with the FUT8 knockout gene. It was 100% non-fucosylated. In an in vitro cell-based ADCC assay, the afucosylated antibody clone showed significantly higher ADCC activity compared to its wild type version. The binding affinity of the non-fucosylated Fc variant antibody to Fc receptor is much higher than than the same antibody with fucosylated Fc. Robust and stable production of qualitative fully non-fucosylated therapeutic antibodies is achieved.
