H2-Eb2 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable several functions, including MHC class II receptor activity; peptide antigen binding activity; and signaling receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including antigen processing and presentation of exogenous peptide antigen via MHC class II; peptide antigen assembly with MHC class II protein complex; and positive regulation of T cell activation. Predicted to be located in external side of plasma membrane and immunological synapse. Predicted to be part of MHC class II protein complex. Predicted to be active in late endosome membrane and lysosomal membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including asthma (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); bacterial infectious disease (multiple); eye disease (multiple); and sarcoidosis (multiple). Orthologous to several human genes including HLA-DRB1 (major histocompatibility complex, class II, DR beta 1); HLA-DRB3 (major histocompatibility complex, class II, DR beta 3); and HLA-DRB4 (major histocompatibility complex, class II, DR beta 4).

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-Eb2 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
