Gene information for NCR3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID259197
Official gene symbolNCR3
Full namenatural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 3
Aliases,1C7,CD337,LY117,MALS,NKp30,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a natural cytotoxicity receptor (NCR) that may aid NK cells in the lysis of tumor cells. The encoded protein interacts with CD3-zeta (CD247), a T-cell receptor. A single nucleotide polymorphism in the 5' untranslated region of this gene has been associated with mild malaria suceptibility. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
