About H2-Oa

Summary

Predicted to enable MHC class II protein complex binding activity. Acts upstream of or within antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class II and regulation of T cell differentiation. Predicted to be part of MHC class II protein complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; cornea; genitourinary system; palatal shelf; and salivary gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in occupational asthma. Orthologous to human HLA-DOA (major histocompatibility complex, class II, DO alpha).
