Mouse CD94 receptor subunit, Mr 70 kDa
The monoclonal antibody 18D3 reacts with the mouse CD94 receptor subunit, a 70kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein. CD94 is expressed on the surface of NK cells, NK T cells and some memory phenotype CD8+ cells.2 When CD94 is paired with NKG2A, C, or E subunit, it binds the nonclassical MHC class Ib molecule Qa-1b and results in a CD94high population by flow cytometry.1, 2 Approximately half of NK cells do not express NKG2A, C or E; these cells express CD94 on the surface in a form that does not bind Qa-1b and is believed to be nonfunctional, producing a CD94low population by flow cytometry.1, 2 CD94 is thought to play a role in the adhesion and activation of the NK cell lineage.

KLRD1_HUMAN

Natural killer (NK) cells are a distinct lineage of lymphocytes that mediate cytotoxic activity and secrete cytokines upon immune stimulation. Several genes of the C-type lectin superfamily, including members of the NKG2 family, are expressed by NK cells and may be involved in the regulation of NK cell function. KLRD1 (CD94) is an antigen preferentially expressed on NK cells and is classified as a type II membrane protein because it has an external C terminus. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]

Function: Plays a role as a receptor for the recognition of MHC class I HLA-E molecules by NK cells and some cytotoxic T-cells.

Subunit structure: Can form disulfide-bonded heterodimer with NKG2 family members. Ref.8 Ref.9 Ref.10

Subcellular location: Membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein.

Tissue specificity: Natural killer cells.

Sequence similarities: Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.
