Function |
Through interaction with TMIGD2, costimulates T-cells in the context of TCR-mediated activation. Enhances T-cell proliferation and cytokine production via an AKT-dependent signaling cascade. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23784006}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed at high levels in colon, kidney, testis, lung and pancreas, and at lower levels in small intestine, liver and skeletal muscle. In immune cells, highly expressed in B- cells, dendritic cells and macrophages. Not detected in T-cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10444326, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23784006}.
