To assess the functional capacity of the heterogeneous Fc gamma RII (CD32) family and to identify critical regions for functioning, we generated a panel of B-cell transfectants. The Fc gamma R-negative B-cell line IIA1.6 was transfected with wild-type or mutant human Fc gamma RIIa and IIb molecules. Solely Fc gamma RIIa-expressing IIA1.6 cells were capable of phagocytosing opsonized Staphylococcus aureus bacteria, and cross-linking of Fc gamma RIIa triggered a rapid induction of tyrosine phosphorylation after 20 seconds. Analysis of Fc gamma RIIa mutants identified the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM; previously described as ARH-1 motif) within the IIa cytoplasmic tail to be critical for B-cell activation. In contrast, Fc gamma RIIb isoforms triggered tyrosine phosphorylation on cross-linking with much slower kinetics (> 3 minutes) than Fc gamma RIIa. Furthermore, solely Fc gamma RIIb molecules proved capable of downregulating [Ca2+]i and interleukin-2 production on co-cross-linking with sIgG in IIA1.6. The Fc gamma RIIb-mediated functions were absent in Fc gamma RIIb mutants in which the tyrosine or leucine within the YSLL motif in a conserved 13-aa region (now known as immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitor motif [ITIM]) were changed into phenylalanines. In conclusion, these data show the presence of functionally critical motifs within Fc gamma RII cytoplasmic tails. Fc gamma RIIa contains an ITAM involved in B-cell activatory functions, whereas the downregulatory activity of Fc gamma RIIb isoforms is linked to an ITIM.

D007152 Immunologic Capping An energy dependent process following the crosslinking of B CELL ANTIGEN RECEPTORS by multivalent ligands (bivalent anti-antibodies, LECTINS or ANTIGENS), on the B-cell surface. The crosslinked ligand-antigen receptor complexes collect in patches which flow to and aggregate at one pole of the cell to form a large mass - the cap. The caps may then be endocytosed or shed into the environment. Capping, Immunologic,Immunological Capping,Capping, Immunological
D008213 Lymphocyte Activation Morphologic alteration of small B LYMPHOCYTES or T LYMPHOCYTES in culture into large blast-like cells able to synthesize DNA and RNA and to divide mitotically. It is induced by INTERLEUKINS; MITOGENS such as PHYTOHEMAGGLUTININS, and by specific ANTIGENS. It may also occur in vivo as in GRAFT REJECTION.
