Specifications

Description

CD85j, also known as ILT-2 (Ig-like transcript 2), LIR-1 (leukocyte Ig-like receptor 1), or LILRB1 (leukocyte Ig-like receptor B1), is a member of Ig superfamily transmembrane glycoproteins named CD85. The CD85j protein is expressed on several types of immune cells (plasma cells, B cells, monocytes, T and NK cell subsets) where it binds to MHC class I molecules on antigen-presenting cells and transduces a negative signal that inhibits stimulation of an immune response. It is thought to control inflammatory responses and cytotoxicity to help focus the immune response and limit autoreactivity.
