Target Information
Function
Negatively regulates T-cell-mediated immune response by inhibiting T-cell activation, proliferation, cytokine production and development of cytotoxicity. When expressed on the cell surface of tumor macrophages, plays an important role, together with regulatory T-cells (Treg), in the suppression of tumor-associated antigen-specific T-cell immunity. Involved in promoting epithelial cell transformation.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. BTN/MOG family. Contains 2 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.
