CD64 (Cluster of Differentiation 64) is a type of

affinity.[1] It is more commonly known as Fc-gamma receptor 1 (FcγRI). After binding IgG, CD64 interacts with an accessory chain known as the common γ chain (γ chain), which possesses an ITAM motif that is necessary for triggering cellular activation.[2]

Structurally CD64 is composed of a

hydrophobic transmembrane domain, and a short cytoplasmic tail.[3]

CD64 is

G-CSF can induce CD64 expression on these cells.[4][5]

There are three distinct (but highly similar)

mRNA transcripts; two from CD64A, three from CD64B, and one from CD64C; by alternate splicing.[3]
