Abstract excerpt
NK cells display several killer inhibitory receptors (KIR) specific for different alleles of MHC class I molecules. A family of KIR are represented by type I transmembrane proteins belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily (Ig-SF). Besides cDNA encoding for these KIR, additional cDNA have been identified which encode for Ig-SF receptors with still undefined specificity. Here we analyze one of these cDNA, termed...
