Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable beta-2-microglobulin binding activity; peptide antigen binding activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including antigen processing and presentation of endogenous peptide antigen via MHC class I via ER pathway, TAP-independent; antigen processing and presentation of endogenous peptide antigen via MHC class Ib; and positive regulation of T cell mediated cytotoxicity. Predicted to be located in cell surface. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Is expressed in spleen. Orthologous to human HLA-H (major histocompatibility complex, class I, H (pseudogene)).
