Fcmr Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables IgM binding activity. Involved in humoral immune response mediated by circulating immunoglobulin; immunoglobulin transcytosis in epithelial cells; and regulation of B cell receptor signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of extrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway and negative regulation of lymphocyte apoptotic process. Located in external side of plasma membrane and trans-Golgi network membrane. Orthologous to human FCMR (Fc mu receptor). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Fcmr often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
