Disease
[B2MG_HUMAN] Defects in B2M are the cause of hypercatabolic hypoproteinemia (HYCATHYP) [MIM:241600]. Affected individuals show marked reduction in serum concentrations of immunoglobulin and albumin, probably due to rapid degradation.[1] Note=Beta-2-microglobulin may adopt the fibrillar configuration of amyloid in certain pathologic states. The capacity to assemble into amyloid fibrils is concentration dependent. Persistently high beta(2)-microglobulin serum levels lead to amyloidosis in patients on long-term hemodialysis.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14]
Function
[A14_VACCW] Envelope protein which is a major component of the mature virion (MV) membrane. Essential for membrane biogenesis. Is required, together with A17, to form bona fide crescents, which can progress to form the immature virion (IV) membrane. A14 and A17 form a lattice that is stabilized by disulfide bonds and serves as an anchor within the viral membrane to which several other proteins important in virion structure and morphogenesis attach.[15] [16] [KI2S2_HUMAN] Receptor on natural killer (NK) cells for HLA-C alleles. Does not inhibit the activity of NK cells. [B2MG_HUMAN] Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system. [1A11_HUMAN] Involved in the presentation of foreign antigens to the immune system.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Inhibitory killer cell Ig-like receptors (KIRs) are known to recognize HLA ligands mainly of the HLA-C and Bw4 groups, but the ligands for KIRs are poorly understood. We report here the identification of the cognate ligand for the activating KIR 2DS2 as HLA-A*11:01. The crystal structure of the KIR2DS2-HLA-A*11:01 complex was solved at 2.5-A resolution and revealed residue-binding characteristics distinct from those of inhibitory KIRs with HLA-C and the critical role of residues Tyr45 and Asp72 in shaping binding specificity to HLA-A*11:01. Using KIR2DS2 tetramers, binding to surface HLA-A*11:01 on live cells was demonstrated and, furthermore, that binding can be altered by residue changes at p8 of the peptide, indicating the influence of peptide sequence on KIR-HLA association. In addition, heteronuclear single quantum coherence NMR was used to map the involvement of critical residues in HLA binding at the interface of KIR and HLA, and validates the data observed in the crystal structure. Our data provide structural evidence of the recognition of A*11:01 by the activating KIR2DS2 and extend our understanding of the KIR-HLA binding spectrum.
