Molecular recognition by Ig-like receptors, KIRs and FcγRs

  • Conference paper
Activating and Inhibitory Immunoglobulin-like Receptors

Summary

Structural studies by us and other groups have shown that Killer cell Ig-like receptors (KIRs) and Fcγ receptors (FcγR) have a similar, unique topology (intermediate between I set and C2 set). In order to gain further insight into molecular recognition by these receptors, we have used surface plasmon resonance (SPR) to analyze the kinetic and thermodynamic properties of their interactions with their natural ligands.
