Crystal Structure of LIR-2 (ILT4) at 1.8 : differences from LIR-1 (ILT2) in regions implicated in the binding of the Cytomegalovirus class I MHC homolog UL18

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 12390682

Function

[LIRB2_HUMAN] Receptor for class I MHC antigens. Recognizes a broad spectrum of HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C and HLA-G alleles. Involved in the down-regulation of the immune response and the development of tolerance. Competes with CD8A for binding to class I MHC antigens. Inhibits FCGR1A-mediated phosphorylation of cellular proteins and mobilization of intracellular calcium ions.[1] [2] [3] [4]
