Expressed in some types of immune cells. Expressed at low levels on the surface of freshly isolated T-cells and natural killer (NK) cells, predominantly on CD8+ T-cells (mainly memory/effector, but not naive cells) and on both CD16+ and CD16- NK cells. T-cell expression levels are variable among individuals. Not detected in B-cells, naive or helper T-cells, monocytes, nor neutrophils (at protein level). Not detected in dendritic cells.
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
