| UniProt functional annotation for Q96D42 | |||
| UniProt code: Q96D42. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | May play a role in T-helper cell development and the regulation of asthma and allergic diseases. Receptor for TIMD4 (By similarity). May play a role in kidney injury and repair. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17471468}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Hepatitis A virus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29437974, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9658108}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Ebolavirus and Marburg virus by binding exposed phosphatidyl-serine at the surface of virion membrane (PubMed:21536871). Serves as a dual receptor for Ebolavirus by also interacting with envelope glycoprotein GP (PubMed:26487564). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21536871, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26487564}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Dengue virus by binding exposed phosphatidyl-serine at the surface of virion membrane. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23084921}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for Zika virus by binding to envelope protein E. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:32641828}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with hepatitis A virus capsid proteins. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29437974, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9658108}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with Ebolavirus envelope glycoprotein GP. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26487564}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with Zika virus envelope protein E. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26487564}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Membrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000305}. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Widely expressed, with highest levels in kidney and testis. Expressed by activated CD4+ T-cells during the development of helper T-cells responses. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9658108}. | |
| Induction: | Up-regulated in the kidney in renal diseases (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17471468}. | |
| Polymorphism: | The region containing tandem repeats is polymorphic and the sequence shown here corresponds to the most common allele (PubMed:14534576). An association between hepatitis A virus (HAV) infection and atopic diseases has been observed in individuals with that allele (PubMed:14534576). Allelic variation does not affect HAV- infection rates in Caucasians, Asians and African Americans (PubMed:14534576). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14534576}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | The extracellular part of the protein can be cleaved and detected in urine and is in correlation with the expression in the kidney. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. TIM family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
