Summary: Predicted to enable beta-2-microglobulin binding activity; peptide antigen binding activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within antigen processing and presentation of endogenous peptide antigen via MHC class Ib via ER pathway, TAP-dependent; inner ear development; and positive regulation of T cell mediated cytotoxicity. Predicted to be located in cell surface and plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of MHC class I protein complex and MHC class Ib protein complex. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and small intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in occupational asthma. Orthologous to human HLA-E (major histocompatibility complex, class I, E). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Study using mouse model that harbors a point mutation in the class Ib MHC molecule Qa-1, which disrupts Qa-1 binding to the T cell receptor-CD8 complex and impairs the CD8 Treg response, revealed that Qa-1 mutant mice developed robust donor-specific antibody responses and accelerated heart graft rejection. Findings underscore the critical contribution of Qa-1-dependent regulatory pathway to graft survival.

Authors demonstrate that the MHC class Ib molecule Qa-1 (encoded by H2-T23) restricts a large, and critical, portion of this population. These findings reveal a potential adaptation of the host immune response to compensate for viral evasion of classical T cell immunity.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
