Summary

Name FCER1A
Full Name High affinity immunoglobulin epsilon receptor subunit alpha
Synonyms Fc-epsilon RI-alpha, FcERI, IgE Fc receptor subunit alpha | FCE1A
Primary ID P12319

Type protein
Relations 5
Pathways Mast cell: FCERI
Function Binds to the Fc region of immunoglobulins epsilon. High affinity receptor. Responsible for initiating the allergic response. Binding of allergen to receptor-bound IgE leads to cell activation and the release of mediators (such as histamine) responsible for the manifestations of allergy. The same receptor also induces the secretion of important lymphokines.
