背景介绍
This gene encodes a serum protein found in association
with the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I heavy chain
on the surface of nearly all nucleated cells. The protein has a
predominantly beta-pleated sheet structure that can form amyloid
fibrils in some pathological conditions. A mutation in this gene
has been shown to result in hypercatabolic hypoproteinemia.
细胞定位
Secreted. Cell surface. Note=Detected in serum and urine (PubMed:1336137, PubMed:7554280). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7554280, ECO:0000269|Ref.6}
功能
Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system. Exogenously applied M.tuberculosis EsxA or EsxA-EsxB (or EsxA expressed in host) binds B2M and decreases its export to the cell surface (total protein levels do not change), probably leading to defects in class I antigen presentation (PubMed:
25356553).
