Human B7-H6 Protein, ECD, Fc-fusion, Biotinylated, Recombinant

Description

B7­H6 (B7 homolog 6), also known as NCR3LG1 (Natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 3 ligand 1), is a single pass, type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the B7 family of the Immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. Among the family members, they share about 20-25% amino acid (aa) identity. Like other B7 family members, B7-H6 contains one Ig V-like and one Ig C-like domain in the extracellular region. Within the ECD, human B7­H6 shares 99% aa identity with chimpanzee B7­-H6 and 53% -­ 56% with bovine, canine, and equine B7­-H6. Orthologs in rodents have not been identified. The Ig­ V-like domain of B7-H6 mediates the interaction with NKp30 (also known as NCR3 and CD337) expressed on NK cells, resulting in natural killer (NK) cell activation and cytotoxicity. B7-H6 does not show binding to other natural killer cell-activating receptors, such as NKp44, NKp46, or NKG2D. Ligation of NKp30 by B7­H6 induces NK cell activation and target cell cytolysis. B7-­H6 is expressed on a wide range of tumor cells, including T and B-lymphomas, myeloid leukemias, melanomas, carcinomas and large T SV40 antigen-transformed cells, The B7-H6 expression is consistent with the detection of NKp30 binding sites on these tumor cells and correlates with tumor cell sensitivity to NKp30-dependent cell lysis.
