Function |
May play a role in dendritic cell function and in adaptive immunity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9768752}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Lysosome membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=During dendritic cell maturation, detected on cytoplasmic vesicles (the MHC II compartment) that contain MHC II proteins, LAMP1, LAMP2 and LAMP3. Detected on lysosomes in mature dendritic cells.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Detected in tonsil interdigitating dendritic cells, in spleen, lymph node, Peyer's patches in the small instestine, in thymus medulla and in B-cells (at protein level). Expressed in lymphoid organs and dendritic cells. Expressed in lung. Up-regulated in carcinomas of the esophagus, colon, rectum, ureter, stomach, breast, fallopian tube, thyroid and parotid tissues. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21930964, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9721848, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9768752}.
