About CD244

Cytogenetic location: 1q23.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 1:160,830,160-160,862,887 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 108 orthologues, 9 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in spleen (RPKM 7.3), bone marrow (RPKM 3.3) and 12 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a cell surface receptor expressed on natural killer (NK) cells (and some T cells) that mediate non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restricted killing. The interaction between NK-cell and target cells via this receptor is thought to modulate NK-cell cytolytic activity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
