Research Abstract |
FcεRI β chain plays an important role in signal transduction of mast cells. We revealed that the secondary structure, conformation, and thermal stability of FcεRI βwild type, polymorphism, and mutants. In addition, we revealed that aspartic acid (D234) to alanine (β-D234A) significantly impaired IL-6 production but not degranulation. These data suggest a novel signaling pathway mediated by the cytoplasmic tail downstream of the FcεRI β ITAM.
