Target/Specificity | This RAET1E antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 150-179 amino acids from the Central region of human RAET1E. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | RAET1E Antibody(Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | RAET1E {ECO:0000303|PubMed:11827464, ECO:0000312|HGNC:HGNC:16793} |
---|---|
Function | Binds and activates the KLRK1/NKG2D receptor, mediating natural killer cell cytotoxicity. |
Cellular Location | Membrane; Single- pass type I membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Predominantly expressed in the skin, but also expressed in testis and trachea. Up-regulated in tumor cells of different origins. Expression progressively decreased after treatment of tumor cells with retinoic acid. |

Background
Members of the RAET1 family, such as RAET1E, are major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-related genes located within a 180-kb cluster on chromosome 6q24.2-q25.3. RAET1 proteins contain MHC class I-like alpha-1 and alpha-2 domains. RAET1E and RAET1G (MIM 609244) differ from the other RAET1 proteins (e.g., RAET1I, or ULBP1; MIM 605697) in that they have type I membrane-spanning sequences at their C termini rather than glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor sequences. RAET1E is a ligand for NKG2D (KLRK1; MIM 611817), which is expressed on the surface of several types of immune cells and is involved in innate and adaptive immune responses (summary by Radosavljevic et al. (2002) [PubMed 11827464] and Cao et al. (2007) [PubMed 17470428]).
