Human natural killer cell receptors involved in MHC class I recognition are disulfide-linked heterodimers of CD94 and NKG2 subunits

Abstract

CD94 receptors expressed on NK cells have been implicated in the recognition of certain HLA class I allotypes. We now demonstrate that CD94 glycoproteins form disulfide-bonded heterodimers with the NKG2A/B, NKG2C, and NKG2E glycoproteins. NKG2A/B possesses two immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM) sequences in its cytoplasmic domain, which may be responsible for the inhibitory function of these receptors, whereas other NKG2 proteins lack ITIMs and may potentially transmit positive signals. Structural heterogeneity in the NKG2 gene family and the formation of heterodimers with CD94 provides for the creation of a diverse NK cell repertoire.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
