Function
Seems to have no role in antigen presentation. Acts as a stress-induced self-antigen that is recognized by gamma delta T cells. Ligand for the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor. Binding to KLRK1 leads to cell lysis.
Tissue Specificity
Widely expressed with the exception of the central nervous system where it is absent. Expressed in many, but not all, epithelial tumors of lung, breast, kidney, ovary, prostate and colon. In hepatocellular carcinomas, expressed in tumor cells but not in surrounding non-cancerous tissue.
KEGG Pathway
.tural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity (hsa04650 )
Kaposi sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection (hsa05167 )
Reactome Pathway
Immunoregulatory interactions between a Lymphoid and a non-Lymphoid cell (R-HSA-198933 )
