Popis: | Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. A polymorphism in the receptor for the Fc region of IgG, Fc γ-receptor IIIa (FcγRIIIa, FCGR3A rs396991), has been inconsistently shown in the literature to have an effect on response to monoclonal antibody therapy in several indications. The rs396991 (T/G) polymorphism leads to an F176V substitution and increased affinity for IgG. This variant has proven difficult to genotype accurately, primarily because of extensive homology between the FCGR3A and FCGR3B genes. We have shown that rs396991 can be genotyped by PCR amplification, followed by direct Sanger sequencing of the product, without coamplification of FCGR3B, and that the rs396991 TaqMan assay (C__25815666_10) agrees with Sanger sequencing results in 100% of European and Asian samples tested, but it has a small error rate in African and American populations. C__25815666_10 is therefore suitable to interrogate rs396991 in studies involving Europeans and Asians; however for other populations, the default genotyping method should be PCR followed by Sanger sequencing. |
