CD314 Monoclonal / Biotin / REA471
Product Details
Description | Clone REA471 recognizes the rat CD314 antigen, a single-pass type II membrane homodimeric glycoprotein belonging to the C-type lectin-like receptor family, which is also known as NKG2-D type II integral membrane protein (NKG2D) or killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily K member 1 (Klrk1). Rat CD314 is expressed in NK cells, and is strongly expressed in resting CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, but not by thymocytes or other hemopoietic cells. It functions as an activating and costimulatory receptor involved in immunosurveillance upon binding to various cellular stress-inducible ligands displayed at the surface of autologous tumor cells and virus-infected cells. CD314 provides both, stimulatory and costimulatory innate immune responses on activated killer cells, leading to cytotoxic activity. It acts as a costimulatory receptor for T cell–receptor in CD8+ T cell–mediated adaptive immune responses by amplifying T cell–activation. Ligands of CD314 belong to various subfamilies of MHC class I–related glycoproteins. | Additional information: Clone REA471 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. | |

About CD314
Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes that can mediate lysis of certain tumor cells and virus-infected cells without previous activation. They can also regulate specific humoral and cell-mediated immunity. NK cells preferentially express several calcium-dependent (C-type) lectins, which have been implicated in the regulation of NK cell function. The NKG2 gene family is located within the NK complex, a region that contains several C-type lectin genes preferentially expressed in NK cells. This gene encodes a member of the NKG2 family. The encoded transmembrane protein is characterized by a type II membrane orientation (has an extracellular C terminus) and the presence of a C-type lectin domain. It binds to a diverse family of ligands that include MHC class I chain-related A and B proteins and UL-16 binding proteins, where ligand-receptor interactions can result in the activation of NK and T cells. The surface expression of these ligands is important for the recognition of stressed cells by the immune system, and thus this protein and its ligands are therapeutic targets for the treatment of immune diseases and cancers. Read-through transcription exists between this gene and the upstream KLRC4 (killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily C, member 4) family member in the same cluster. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
