Target Details

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

Alternative Name: MICA (MICA Products)

Synonyms: MIC-A Protein, PERB11.1 Protein, MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence A Protein, MICA Protein

Background: MICA (MHC class I chain-related gene A) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that functions as a ligand for human NKG2D. A closely related protein, MICB, shares 85 % amino acid identity with MICA. These proteins are distantly related to the MHC class I proteins. They possess three extracellular Ig-like domains, but they have no capacity to bind peptide or interact with beta 2-microglobulin..

Molecular Weight: 33.53 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 48-58 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Pathways: Activation of Innate immune Response, Transition Metal Ion Homeostasis
