UniProt functional annotation for Q8R183

UniProt code: Q8R183.

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Taxonomy: Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Myomorpha; Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Mus; Mus.
 
Function: Probable receptor for SEMA4A involved in the regulation of T- cell function. The interaction with SEMA4A enhances T-cell activation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12374982}.
 
Subunit: Homodimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17363299}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17363299}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17363299}.
Miscellaneous: Belongs to the T-cell and airway phenotype regulator (Tapr) locus, a single chromosomal region that confers reduced T-helper type 2 responsiveness and protects against airway hyperactivity (AHR), the hallmark of human asthma. The human genomic locus appears to lack the Timd2 gene.
Similarity: Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. TIM family. {ECO:0000305}.
