Preparation and Storage

Background: FCRL6/FcRH6

FCRL6 (Fc receptor-like protein 6; also FcRH6 and IFGP6) is a 66 kDa member of the Ig Superfamily.  It is found on CD56dim CD16⁺ NK cells, CD56⁺ CD3⁺ NKT cells, gd T cells, and effector plus effector-memory CD8⁺ T cells.  FCRL6 is not a receptor for immunoglobulin.  It does, however, bind to isoforms of HLA-DR that are expressed on APCs.  Given that FCRL6 contains a cytoplasmic ITIM, FCRL6 may function as an inhibitory receptor for MHC Class II.  Mature human FCRL6 is a 415 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane protein.  It contains a 288 aa extracellular region (aa 20-307) that shows three C2-type Ig-like domains (aa 20-293), and a 106 aa cytoplasmic domain.  There are multiple potential splice variants.  One shows a deletion of aa 105-200 accompanied by a 13 aa substitution for aa 394-434; a second possesses a 15 aa substitution for aa 383-434; and a third shows an alternative start site seven aa upstream of the standard site accompanied by a 13 aa substitution for aa 394-434.  Over aa 16-312, human FCRL6 shares only 33% aa identity with the mouse counterpart to FCRL6.
