'''CD1d protein''' is a molecule of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immune_system immune system], involved in the presentation of a lipid antigen to NKT cells, which are a subset of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_cell T cells]. Indeed, these proteins are located on the plasma membrane of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antigen-presenting_cell APC cells]. When the recognition between the CD1d bound to its lipid ligand and the [[TCR]] of a NKT cell occurs, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lymphocyte lymphocyte] turns out to be activated. Thus, the production of cytotoxic molecules such as [[interleukin]]-4 and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferon_gamma IFN-gamma] is triggered by this activation, leading to a Th2 or Th1 immune response respectively<ref name="properties">Joyce, S.

CD1d molecules are structurally similar to [[Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I]], but present lipid antigens as opposed to peptides. Thus the cleft where the ligand can bind is different between MHC molecules and CD1d molecules.

CD1d proteins lipid recognition is based on the interaction of the protein with its ligand. Nevertheless, the interaction relies on two recognitions. The first one is the recognition of the head of the lipid and the second one is the recognition of the length of the molecule.
