Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor II-b/Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor II-c encoded by FCGR2B is a low affinity receptor for the Fc region of immunoglobulin gamma complexes. The encoded protein is involved in the phagocytosis of immune complexes and in the regulation of antibody production by B-cells. Variations in this gene may increase susceptibilty to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. immune response,
