CD1e Proteins and Enzymes

CD1e is an approximately 40 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein in the CD1 family of glycolipid antigen-presenting MHC-like molecules. CD1e associates with beta2-microglobulin in endosomes and the Golgi where it facilitates the processing of glycolipids for their presentation by other CD1 family proteins. CD1e is expressed by most nonhuman mammals but n...
