Function |
Involved in the costimulatory signal, essential for T- cell proliferation and IFNG production in a PDCD1-independent manner. Interaction with PDCD1 inhibits T-cell proliferation by blocking cell cycle progression and cytokine production (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Isoform 1: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in heart, placenta, pancreas, lung and liver and weakly expressed in spleen, lymph nodes and thymus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11224527}.
