H2-Q7 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including 14-3-3 protein binding activity; TAP binding activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to type II interferon and embryo implantation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including Golgi apparatus; bounding membrane of organelle; and endoplasmic reticulum exit site. Predicted to be part of MHC class I peptide loading complex; MHC class I protein complex; and MHC class Ib protein complex. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and small intestine. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); asthma (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); eye disease (multiple); and inner ear disease (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including HLA-B (major histocompatibility complex, class I, B); HLA-C (major histocompatibility complex, class I, C); and HLA-F (major histocompatibility complex, class I, F).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse H2-Q7 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • Immunoglobulin C1-set domain
  • Class I Histocompatibility antigen, domains alpha 1 and 2
  • immunoglobulin domain
  • peptide antigen binding
