Fc gamma receptors, and in particular genetic variation in these receptors, are important in disorders of hose defense, immunohematologic disease, and systemic autoimmune diseases. We investigated the His-Arg (CAT/CGT) polymorphism at codon 131 of the Fc gamma receptor IIA gene, which influences ligand binding by the receptor. Previously, individuals had been classified phenotypically on the basis of differential binding of murine immunoglobulin G1, but the Fc gamma receptor IIA genotype distribution has not been reported. We used selective PCR-based sequence analysis of genomic DNA to determine the distribution in healthy individuals. For African-Americans, the genotype distribution was determined to be A/A (14%), A/G (60%), and G/G (26%); for Caucasian Americans, the distribution was A/A (30%), A/G (51%), and G/G (19%). These data correlate well with phenotypic data. We implemented a nonradioactive single-stranded conformational polymorphism analysis to rapidly identify all three genotypes. The PCR-single-stranded conformational polymorphism analysis method will facilitate studies of the genotype distribution in individuals with disorders of immune function.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008024 Ligands A molecule that binds to another molecule, used especially to refer to a small molecule that binds specifically to a larger molecule, e.g., an antigen binding to an antibody, a hormone or neurotransmitter binding to a receptor, or a substrate or allosteric effector binding to an enzyme. Ligands are also molecules that donate or accept a pair of electrons to form a coordinate covalent bond with the central metal atom of a coordination complex. (From Dorland, 27th ed) Ligand
D008969 Molecular Sequence Data Descriptions of specific amino acid, carbohydrate, or nucleotide sequences which have appeared in the published literature and/or are deposited in and maintained by databanks such as GENBANK, European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), National Biomedical Research Foundation (NBRF), or other sequence repositories.

D011110 Polymorphism, Genetic The regular and simultaneous occurrence in a single interbreeding population of two or more discontinuous genotypes. The concept includes differences in genotypes ranging in size from a single nucleotide site (POLYMORPHISM, SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE) to large nucleotide sequences visible at a chromosomal level.

D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.

D017452 Receptors, IgG Specific molecular sites on the surface of various cells, including B-lymphocytes and macrophages, that combine with IMMUNOGLOBULIN Gs. Three subclasses exist: Fc gamma RI (the CD64 antigen, a low affinity receptor), Fc gamma RII (the CD32 antigen, a high affinity receptor), and Fc gamma RIII (the CD16 antigen, a low affinity receptor).
