Cd1d1 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables T cell receptor binding activity and endogenous lipid antigen binding activity. Involved in NK T cell differentiation and regulation of immature T cell proliferation in thymus. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including antigen processing and presentation, exogenous lipid antigen via MHC class Ib; positive regulation of cytokine production; and positive regulation of leukocyte activation. Located in endosome; external side of plasma membrane; and lysosome. Is expressed in forebrain; intestine; jaw bone; and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pulmonary tuberculosis. Orthologous to human CD1D (CD1d molecule). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Cd1d1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
