Functional studies on Fc receptors
1Dept of Immunology, Loránd Eötvös University, Hungary.
Fc receptors (FcRs) are cell surface molecules that recognize and bind to the constant domains of immunoglobulins. In doing so, they enable antibodies to perform several biological functions, by forming a link between specific antigen recognition and FcR-bearing cells. Here, Gabriella Sármay provides an overview of recent studies on FcRs in Hungarian laboratories, concentrating on their role in selected biological systems.
