Natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 3 (NKp30)

Target (abbrv.) NKp30
Target (full name) Natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 3
Somalogic ID (Sequence ID) SL005205 (3003-29_2)
Entrez Gene Symbol NCR3
UniProt ID O14931
UniProt Comment
  • Cytotoxicity-activating receptor that contributes to the increased efficiency of activated natural killer (NK) cells to mediate tumor cell lysis. Engagement of NCR3 by BAG6 also promotes dendritic cell (DC) maturation, both through killing those DCs that did not properly acquire a mature phenotype, and inducing NK cells to release TNFA and IFNG, which promotes DC maturation.

  • Natural Killer Cell Activation
  • Natural Killer Cell Activation through ITAM-Containing Receptors

All locus annotations are based on the sentinel SNP (rs6916921) and 6 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.
