About HLA-F

Cytogenetic location: 6p22.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:29,723,434-29,738,532 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 586 orthologues and 22 paralogues. Broad expression in spleen (RPKM 31.0), lymph node (RPKM 20.6) and 24 other tissues.

Summary

This gene belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. It encodes a non-classical heavy chain that forms a heterodimer with a beta-2 microglobulin light chain, with the heavy chain anchored in the membrane. Unlike most Other HLA heavy chains, this molecule is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus, with a small amount present at the cell surface in some cell types. It contains a divergent peptide-binding groove, and is thought to bind a restricted subset of Peptides for immune presentation. This gene exhibits few polymorphisms. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. These variants lack a coding exon found in transcripts from Other HLA paralogues due to an altered splice acceptor site, resulting in a shorter cytoplasmic domain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
