Bioinformation
Gene Symbol | B2M |
---|---|
Gene Full Name | beta-2-microglobulin |
Background | This gene encodes a serum protein found in association with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I heavy chain on the surface of nearly all nucleated cells. The protein has a predominantly beta-pleated sheet structure that can form amyloid fibrils in some pathological conditions. The encoded antimicrobial protein displays antibacterial activity in amniotic fluid. A mutation in this gene has been shown to result in hypercatabolic hypoproteinemia. |
Function | Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system. Exogenously applied M.tuberculosis EsxA or EsxA-EsxB (or EsxA expressed in host) binds B2M and decreases its export to the cell surface (total protein levels do not change), probably leading to defects in class I antigen presentation. |
Cellular Localization | Amyloid, MHC I, Secreted |
PTM | Disulfide bond, Glycation, Glycoprotein, Pyrrolidone carboxylic acid |
