Fc-gamma receptor signaling pathway module

Fc-gamma receptor signaling couples immune-complex binding to ITAM-containing receptor chains, SYK/BTK activation, PLC-gamma and PI3K branches, phagocytosis, and inflammatory effector functions.

Curated compact signaling-pathway module generated from verified UniProt exemplar accessions and local PAINT IBD rows. PTN anchors are included only when the exemplar accession appears in an IBD seed row in interpro/panther; roles without local PAINT seeds remain grounded by verified UniProt exemplar accessions. Falcon integration (2026-06-28): Falcon findings are linked as evidence and family-level support. Automatically extracted open-question headings were intentionally not retained as knowledge_gap entries because they were not manually curated. Machine-generated Falcon citations remain curation support and are not manually adjudicated here.
