Cd1d1

Predicted to enable several functions, including T cell receptor binding activity; lipid antigen binding activity; and lipopeptide binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including antigen processing and presentation, endogenous lipid antigen via MHC class Ib; antigen processing and presentation, exogenous lipid antigen via MHC class Ib; and regulation of T cell proliferation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of cytokine production; positive regulation of leukocyte activation; and positive thymic T cell selection. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cell surface; endosome; and lysosome. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane and extracellular space. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in pulmonary tuberculosis. Orthologous to human CD1D (CD1d molecule). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 rat 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.

Locations within the cell where the protein is known or predicted to be active, providing insight into its function and cellular context.
