HLA class II histocompatibility antigen, DM beta chain, MHC class II antigen DMB, Really interesting new gene 7 protein, HLA-DMB, DMB, RING7
Product description
HLA-DMB belongs to the HLA class II beta chain paralogues.
This class II molecule is a heterodimer consisting of an alpha
(DMA) and a beta (DMB) chain, both anchored in the membrane. It is
located in intracellular vesicles. DM plays a central role in the
peptide loading of MHC class II molecules by helping to release the
CLIP (class II-associated invariant chain peptide) molecule from
the peptide binding site. Class II molecules are expressed in
antigen presenting cells (APC: B lymphocytes, dendritic cells,
macrophages). The beta chain is approximately 26-28 kDa and its
gene contains 6 exons. Exon one encodes the leader peptide, exons 2
and 3 encode the two extracellular domains, exon 4 encodes the
transmembrane domain and exon 5 encodes the cytoplasmic tail.1) Rinderknecht, C.H., et al. Immunology 131(1):18-32(2010)
