NCBI Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a B-cell specific antigen, and a low-affinity receptor for IgE. It has essential roles in B cell growth and differentiation, and the regulation of IgE production. This protein also exists as a soluble secreted form, then functioning as a potent mitogenic growth factor. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2011].

Structural models
Model Confidence:
  •    Very high (pLDDT > 90)
  •    Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  •    Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  •    Very low (pLDDT < 50)

  AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

Oligomerization and Known Interactions
Homotrimer. Interacts (via C-type lectin domain) with IGHE (via CH3 region); this interaction regulates IgE homeostasis. Interacts (via the C-terminus) with CR2/CD21 (via Sushi domain 1 and 2) (PubMed:1386409, PubMed:16172256)
