NKG2D, also known as CD314, is a type II transmembrane protein with an extracellular C-type lectin-like domain. It occurs as a disulfide-linked homodimer that associates with the transmembrane DAP10 (DNAX-activator protein 10) adapter protein to deliver an activating signal. This protein shares approximately 25% amino acid sequence identity with a number of other type II lectin-like proteins that are encoded by genes within the natural killer complex on mouse chromosome 6. NKG2D is expressed on NK cells, where it functions as an activating receptor to trigger cytolytic activity and cytokine secretion, and on some T cell subsets, where it acts as a co‑stimulatory receptor complementing T cell receptor signaling. Several ligands have now been identified for mouse NKG2D including H60 and Rae 1 alpha, beta, gamma, delta, and epsilon. All of these ligands are cell-surface proteins distantly related to MHC class I. However, they do not bind peptide or associate with beta 2-microglobulin. Ligand expression is up-regulated in many transformed cell lines and also during conditions of stress such as heat shock or viral infection. In vivo, tumor models demonstrate that NKG2D functions in anti-tumor surveillance (1-5).

Detection of NKG2D/CD314 by Flow Cytometry
NK Require NKG2D to Control Early Virus Dissemination & for Optimal Cytotoxicity but Not Activation(A) B6 mice infected with 3,000 pfu ECTV. On day 5 PI, mice pulsed with BrdU for 3 h & their spleens analyzed by flow cytometry. Plots are gated on CD3ɛ− NK1.1+. Data correspond to pools of three mice from three individual experiments.(B) Increased viral titers of infected mice with NKG2D blockade in vivo. Intact B6 mice, B6 mice with NKG2D blockade, B6 mice depleted of NK, B6 mice depleted of T (treated with anti-CD4 + anti-CD8 mAbs), or depleted of T & with NKG2D blockade infected with 3,000 pfu ECTV & the viral titers in spleen determined on day 3 PI. Data are the average ± SD of three individual mice & are representative of two similar experiments.(C) The indicated mice infected with 3,000 pfu ECTV, & the NK responses in the D-LN determined at 2 d PI. Upper panel: Dot plot showing the proportion of NK (DX5+, CD3e−) in the D-LN of infected & control uninfected mice. Lower panel: GzB & IFN-gamma production by NK. correspond to the DX5+, CD3ɛ− gate of the upper panels. Data correspond to pools of three mice & are representative of three similar experiments.(D) NK purified from spleens (5 d PI) of ECTV-infected intact or NKG2D-blocked mice & stained as indicated. Filled histogram: isotype-matched control Ig; gray line: NKG2D-blocked mice; black line: intact mice.(E) NK purified from spleens of intact or NKG2D-blocked mice as indicated & used as effectors in a 4-h 51Cr release assay against the indicated targets. Data correspond to pools of three mice & are representative of three experiments.(F) As in (D), but the NK purified from untreated mice & a neutralizing anti-NKG2D mAb was added to the in vitro cytotoxicity assays, as indicated.
