Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Through interaction with TMIGD2, costimulates T-cells in the context of TCR-mediated activation. Enhances T-cell proliferation and cytokine production via an AKT-dependent signaling cascade. {ECO:0000269PubMed:23784006}.

Subcellular Localization

Membrane {ECO:0000250}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.

Disease Associations

Tissue Specificity

Expressed at high levels in colon, kidney, testis, lung and pancreas, and at lower levels in small intestine, liver and skeletal muscle. In immune cells, highly expressed in B- cells, dendritic cells and macrophages. Not detected in T-cells. {ECO:0000269PubMed:10444326, ECO:0000269PubMed:23784006}.
