MICB - MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B Gene
Also Known as PERB11.2
Species: Homo sapiens
About MICB
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 1 gene allele, 405 orthologues and 22 paralogues. Broad expression in lymph node (RPKM 4.7), bone marrow (RPKM 4.2) and 20 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a heavily glycosylated protein which is a ligand for the NKG2D type II receptor. Binding of the ligand activates the cytolytic response of natural killer (NK) cells, CD8 alphabeta T cells, and gammadelta T cells which express the receptor. This protein is stress-induced and is similar to MHC class I molecules; however, it does not associate with beta-2-microglobulin or bind peptides. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]
