CD96 CD96 molecule

Gene ID: 10225, updated on 3-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: TACTILE

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. It is a type I membrane protein. The protein may play a role in the adhesive interactions of activated T and NK cells during the late phase of the immune response. It may also function in antigen presentation. Alternative splicing generates multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
