About Cd244a

Summary

Predicted to enable MHC class I protein binding activity. Involved in myeloid dendritic cell activation; natural killer cell activation involved in immune response; and positive regulation of lymphocyte proliferation. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in thymus primordium. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in rheumatoid arthritis. Orthologous to human CD244 (CD244 molecule).
