Target Details

Target: MICA (MHC Class I Polypeptide-Related Sequence A (MICA))

Alternative Name: MICA

Background: This gene encodes the highly polymorphic major histocompatability complex class I chain-related protein A. The protein product is expressed on the cell surface, although unlike canonical class I molecules it does not seem to associate with beta-2-microglobulin. It is a ligand for the NKG2-D type II integral membrane protein receptor. The protein functions as a stress-induced antigen that is broadly recognized by intestinal epithelial gamma delta T cells. Variations in this gene have been associated with susceptibility to psoriasis 1 and psoriatic arthritis, and the shedding of MICA-related antibodies and ligands is involved in the progression from monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance to multiple myeloma. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2014]

Molecular Weight: predicted molecular mass of 33.5 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of MICA-His is 55-70 kDa due to glycosylation.
