RX PubMed=15048723; DOI=10.1002/eji.200324793; RA Alli R., Savithri B., Das S., Varalakshmi C., Rangaraj N., Khar A.; RT "Involvement of NKR-P2/NKG2D in DC-mediated killing of tumor targets: RT indicative of a common, innate, target-recognition paradigm?"; RL Eur. J. Immunol. 34:1119-1126(2004). CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in the immune surveillance exerted by T and B CC lymphocytes. Functions as a natural cytotoxicity receptor to CC stimulate perforin-mediated elimination of ligand-expressing tumor CC cells. Signaling involves calcium influx, culminating in the CC expression of TNF-alpha. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with DAP10. The interaction with CC DAP10 is required for NKG2D cell surface expression (By CC similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Type II membrane protein (By similarity). CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed by natural killer cells and by CC resting thoracic duct CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, but not by thymocytes CC or other hemopoietic cells. Expressed by DC cells. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Contains 1 C-type lectin family domain.
