OverviewNCBI Gene
The high affinity IgE receptor is a key molecule involved in allergic reactions. It is a tetramer composed of 1 alpha, 1 beta, and 2 gamma chains. The gamma chains are also subunits of other Fc receptors. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads FCER1G as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against FCER1G could matter depends on whether native FCER1G is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
FCER1G is annotated at the cell surface, where native FCER1G is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label FCER1G as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
