Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 12481 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including natural killer cell activation; natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity; and positive regulation of cytokine production. Located in several cellular components, including cell-cell junction; cytoplasmic side of plasma membrane; and external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human CD2 (CD2 molecule). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene does not appear to result in a phenotype. [provided by MGI curators] |
