Background: CD16 is expressed on the majority of NK cells, on granulocytes, monocytes and macrophages, and on a subset of T cells. CD16 is involved in antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC). This molecule is encoded by FcγRIII-A or FcγRIII-B genes. The genetic heterogeneity of FcγRIII generates alternative membrane-anchored proteins with distinct signalling capacities when cross-linked by immune complexes. CD16 exists in two distinct forms, as a single-pass type I integral membrane protein (CD16a), and as a glycosyl phosphatidyl inositol (GPI) form (CD16b). In humans, the transmembrane form is expressed on NK cells and macrophages while the GPI linked form is expressed on granulocytes.Synonyms: CD16A, FCG3, FCGR3, FCGR3A, Fc-gamma RIII, Fc-gamma RIII-alpha, Fc-gamma RIIIa, FcR-10, FcRIII, FcRIIIa, IGFR3, IgG Fc receptor III-2, Low affinity immunoglobulin gamma Fc region receptor III-A
