| UniProt functional annotation for Q92692 | |||
| UniProt code: Q92692. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Modulator of T-cell signaling. Can be either a costimulator of T-cell function, or a coinhibitor, depending on the receptor it binds to. Upon binding to CD226, stimulates T-cell proliferation and cytokine production, including that of IL2, IL5, IL10, IL13, and IFNG. Upon interaction with PVRIG, inhibits T-cell proliferation. These interactions are competitive (PubMed:26755705). Probable cell adhesion protein (PubMed:9657005). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26755705, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9657005}. | |
| Function: | (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for herpes simplex virus 1 (HHV-1) mutant Rid1, herpes simplex virus 1 (HHV-2) and pseudorabies virus (PRV). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11602758, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9657005}. | |
| Subunit: | Can form trans-heterodimers with NECTIN3 (By similarity). Interacts with CD226 or with PVRIG; these interactions are competitive and have a differential functional outcome on T-cell activation, either positive or negative, respectively. Binds with low affinity to TIGIT. {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15607800, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19011627, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22927415}. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with herpes simplex virus 1 (HHV-1) mutant Rid1, herpes simplex virus 1 (HHV-2) and pseudorabies virus (PRV) envelope glycoprotein D (PubMed:11602758, PubMed:9657005). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11602758, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9657005}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. | |
| Tissue specificity: | Ubiquitous. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the nectin family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
