Gene Full Name :

MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B

Synonyms :

MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B; MIC-B; MICB ; PERB11.2 ;

Protein Name :

MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B

Molecular Weight :

42646 MW

Protein Function :

Seems to have no role in antigen presentation. Acts as a stress-induced self-antigen that is recognized by gamma delta T cells. Ligand for the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor. Binding to KLRK1 leads to cell lysis.

Subcellular Localization :

Cell membrane ; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Binding to human cytomegalovirus glycoprotein UL16 causes sequestration in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Tissue Specificity :

Widely expressed with the exception of the central nervous system where it is absent. Expressed in many, but not all, epithelial tumors of lung, breast, kidney, ovary, prostate and colon. In hepatocellular carcinomas, expressed in tumor cells but not in surrounding non-cancerous tissue.

Recommended Detection Systems :

Boster recommends Enhanced Chemiluminescent Kit with anti-Rabbit IgG (EK1002) for Western blot.

Sequence Similarities :

Belongs to the MHC class I family. MIC subfamily.

Background :

MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MICB gene. This gene encodes a heavily glycosylated protein which is a ligand for the NKG2D type II receptor. Binding of the ligand activates the cytolytic response of natural killer (NK) cells, CD8 alphabeta T cells, and gammadelta T cells which express the receptor. This protein is stress-induced and is similar to MHC class I molecules; however, it does not associate with beta-2-microglobulin or bind peptides. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
