intracellular chain of KIR3DL1

Encodes the intracellular signaling chain of the KIR3DL1 immune receptor. Inhibits immune cell activation via the ITIM (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif) motif.


Usage and Biology

In wild-type NK cells, Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) with long cytoplasmic domains inhibit cell mediated cytotoxicity upon ligand binding. They possess a immune tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) that when phosphorylated recruits phosphotases like SHP-1 that decrease the activation molecules involved in cell signaling.
