NKG2D/CD314 Proteins and Enzymes

NKG2D is a type II transmembrane protein with an extracellular C-type lectin domain. It occurs as a disulfide-linked homodimer that associates with either the DAP12 or DAP10 transmembrane adapter proteins. NKG2D is expressed on NK cells and some T cell subsets, where it functions as an activating receptor to trigger cytolytic activity and cytokine ...
