Batf3 | Basic leucine zipper transcriptional factor ATF-like 3; AP-1 family transcription factor that controls the differentiation of CD8(+) thymic conventional dendritic cells in the immune system. Acts via the formation of a heterodimer with JUN family proteins that recognizes and binds DNA sequence 5'-TGA[CG]TCA-3' and regulates expression of target genes. Required for development of CD8- alpha(+) classical dendritic cells (cDCs) and related CD103(+) dendritic cells that cross-present antigens to CD8 T-cells and produce interleukin-12 (IL12) in response to pathogens. Belongs to the bZIP family. (118 aa) | ||||
Sh2d1b2 | SH2 domain-containing protein 1B2; Cytoplasmic adapter regulating receptors of the signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) family. In SLAM signaling may cooperate with Sh2d1a/SAP. Plays a role in regulation of effector functions of natural killer (NK) cells by controlling signal transduction through Cd244/2b4. However, conflicting results are reported which may reflect the use of different strain backgrounds. Proposed to act as an inhibitor of Cd244-mediated NK cell function including cytotoxicity and IFN-gamma production, the latter found also by triggering Klra4 and Klrk1 ne [...] (132 aa) |
