Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.

| Other Names | NKG2-C type II integral membrane protein, CD159 antigen-like family member C, NK cell receptor C, NKG2-C-activating NK receptor, CD159c, KLRC2, NKG2C |
| Target/Specificity | The synthetic peptide sequence used to generate the antibody AP8630a was selected from the N-term region of human KLRC2. A 10 to 100 fold molar excess to antibody is recommended. Precise conditions should be optimized for a particular assay. |
| Format | Peptides are lyophilized in a solid powder format. Peptides can be reconstituted in solution using the appropriate buffer as needed. |
| Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 6 months. For long term storage store at -20°C. |
| Precautions | This product is for research use only. Not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | KLRC2 |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | NKG2C {ECO:0000303|PubMed:18083576} |
| Function | Immune activating receptor involved in self-nonself discrimination. In complex with KLRD1 on cytotoxic lymphocyte subsets, recognizes non-classical major histocompatibility (MHC) class Ib HLA-E loaded with signal sequence-derived peptides from non-classical MHC class Ib HLA-G molecules, likely playing a role in the generation and effector functions of adaptive natural killer (NK) cells and in maternal-fetal tolerance during pregnancy (PubMed:9754572, PubMed:30134159, PubMed:37264229). Regulates the effector functions of terminally differentiated cytotoxic lymphocyte subsets, and in particular may play a role in adaptive NK cell response to viral infection (PubMed:21825173, PubMed:20952657). Upon HLA-E-peptide binding, transmits intracellular signals via the adapter protein TYROBP/DAP12, triggering the phosphorylation of proximal signaling molecules and cell activation (PubMed:9655483, PubMed:15940674). |
| Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein |
| Tissue Location | Expressed in NK cell subsets, in particular in adaptive CD57-positive NK cells (at protein level) (PubMed:20952657, PubMed:21825173). Expressed in terminally differentiated cytotoxic gamma-delta T cells (at protein level) (PubMed:20952657). Expressed in alpha-beta T cells subsets (at protein level) (PubMed:20952657). KLRD1- KLRC1 and KLRD1-KLRC2 are differentially expressed within NK and T cell populations, with only minor subsets expressing both receptor complexes (at protein level) (PubMed:20952657). |

Background
KLRC2 plays a role as a receptor for the recognition of MHC class I HLA-E molecules by NK cells and some cytotoxic T-cells.
