| Function |
Antigen-presenting molecule specialized in presenting microbial vitamin B metabolites. Involved in the development and expansion of a small population of T-cells expressing an invariant T-cell receptor alpha chain called mucosal-associated invariant T- cells (MAIT). MAIT lymphocytes are preferentially located in the gut lamina propria and therefore may be involved in monitoring commensal flora or serve as a distress signal. Expression and MAIT cell recognition seem to be ligand-dependent. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12794138, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19416870}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Isoform 3: Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23457030}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23457030}. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23457030}. Note=The larger proportion remains in the ER in an immature state. The subset that reach cell surface does it through a B2M-independent pathway.

| Tissue Specificity |
Ubiquitous. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7624800}.
