MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B (MICB)

Target (abbrv.) MICB
Target (full name) MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL005200 (5102-55_3)
Entrez Gene Symbol MICB
UniProt ID Q29980
UniProt Comment
  • Seems to have no role in antigen presentation. Acts as a stress-induced self-antigen that is recognized by gamma delta T cells. Ligand for the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor. Binding to KLRK1 leads to cell lysis.
Biomarker applications (based on IPA annotation)
  • safety

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs2905736) and 46 proxy variant(s) that is/are in linkage disequilibrium r2 ≥ 0.8. Linkage disequilibrium is based on data from the 1000 Genomes Project, phase 3 version 5, European population and was retrieved using SNiPA's Block Annotation feature.
