Gene information for CD244 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID51744
Official gene symbolCD244
Full nameCD244 molecule, natural killer cell receptor 2B4
Aliases,2B4,NAIL,NKR2B4,Nmrk,SLAMF4,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a cell surface receptor expressed on natural killer (NK) cells (and some T cells) that mediate non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restricted killing. The interaction between NK-cell and target cells via this receptor is thought to modulate NK-cell cytolytic activity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
