Source : 

Cynomolgus / Rhesus macaque FCGRT&B2M Heterodimer Protein, His Tag (BLI verified), is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Ala 24 – Ser 297 (FCGRT) & Ile 21 – Met 119 (B2M) (Accession # Q8SPV9-1 (FCGRT) & Q8SPW0-1 (B2M)). In the region Ala 24 – Ser 297 (FCGRT) & Ile 21 – Met 119 (B2M), the AA sequence of Cynomolgus and Rhesus macaque FCGRT&B2M are homologus.

Description :

FCGRT & B2M heterodimer protein (FcRn complex) consist of two subunits: p51 (equivalent to FCGRT), and p14 (equivalent to beta-2-microglobulin), and forms an MHC class I-like heterodimer. Fc fragment of IgG, receptor, transporter, alpha (FCGRT) binds to the Fc region of monomeric immunoglobulins gamma and mediates the uptake of IgG from milk. FCGRT possible role in transfer of immunoglobulin G from mother to fetus. Beta-2-microglobulin (B2M) is a component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system.
