Description: CD16 antibody, 3G8, recognizes human CD16, also known as low-affinity IgG receptor III (FcγRIII). There are two distinct forms of CD16, CD16a (FcγRIIIa) and CD16b (FcγRIIIb). CD16a is a 50-65 kDa heterooligomeric polypeptide-anchored transmembrane protein expressed by NK cells, macrophages, and subsets of monocytes1. CD16b is a 48 kDa monomeric glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein expressed on neutrophils1. Upon binding to the Fc portion of IgG or IgG-antigen complex, both CD16 isoforms induce signaling cascades resulting in multiple functions, including phagocytosis, cytokine release, proliferation, degranulation, and antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC)2.
