Swiss-port # Q7Z7D3 Human V-set domain-containing T-cell activation inhibitor 1 |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | VTCN1 |
| Gene Full Name | V-set domain containing T cell activation inhibitor 1 |
| Background | This gene encodes a protein belonging to the B7 costimulatory protein family. Proteins in this family are present on the surface of antigen-presenting cells and interact with ligand bound to receptors on the surface of T cells. Studies have shown that high levels of the encoded protein has been correlated with tumor progression. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 20. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011] |
| Function | Negatively regulates T-cell-mediated immune response by inhibiting T-cell activation, proliferation, cytokine production and development of cytotoxicity. When expressed on the cell surface of tumor macrophages, plays an important role, together with regulatory T-cells (Treg), in the suppression of tumor-associated antigen-specific T-cell immunity. Involved in promoting epithelial cell transformation. [UniProt] |
| Cellular Localization | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Note=Expressed at the cell surface. A soluble form has also been detected. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 31 kDa |
| PTM | N-glycosylated. [UniProt] |
