== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/IGHG1_HUMAN IGHG1_HUMAN] Defects in IGHG1 are a cause of multiple myeloma (MM) [MIM:[https://omim.org/entry/254500 254500]. MM is a malignant tumor of plasma cells usually arising in the bone marrow and characterized by diffuse involvement of the skeletal system, hyperglobulinemia, Bence-Jones proteinuria and anemia. Complications of multiple myeloma are bone pain, hypercalcemia, renal failure and spinal cord compression. The aberrant antibodies that are produced lead to impaired humoral immunity and patients have a high prevalence of infection. Amyloidosis may develop in some patients. Multiple myeloma is part of a spectrum of diseases ranging from monoclonal gammopathy of unknown significance (MGUS) to plasma cell leukemia. Note=A chromosomal aberration involving IGHG1 is found in multiple myeloma. Translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) with the IgH locus. Translocation t(11;14)(q13;q32) with CCND1; translocation t(4;14)(p16.3;q32.3) with FGFR3; translocation t(6;14)(p25;q32) with IRF4.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
We report here the three-dimensional structure of a human Fc fragment engineered for enhanced antibody dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). The triple mutation S239D/A330L/I332E ('3M') was introduced into the C(H)2 portion of a human immunoglobulin G1 (IgG1) Fc. These three substitutions typically result in an about 10-100-fold increase in human IgG1 binding to human Fc gamma RIIIA (CD16). The recombinantly produced Fc/3M fragment was crystallized and its structure solved at a resolution of 2.5A using molecular replacement. No dramatic structural changes were observed in Fc/3M when compared with unmutated human Fc fragments. However, we found that the relative positions of its C(H)2 domains allowed for an unusually 'open' conformation of the entire fragment. Although this particular structural feature could be due to crystallization artifacts or intrinsic variability, we propose that molecular mechanisms at the basis of the enhanced interaction between Fc/3M and CD16 could include enhanced Fc openness as well as the introduction of additional hydrophobic contacts, hydrogen bonds and/or electrostatic interactions at the corresponding interface. The existence of a more pronounced cleft between the two Fc chains as well as of repulsive, electrostatic intra-chain interactions may also account in part for the decreased thermostability of both Fc/3M and a 3M-modified humanized anti-human EphA2 IgG1 when compared with their respective unmutated counterparts.
