motifs/domains
  • a large N-terminal extracellular segment, folded into two Ig-like domains with both ends joined by a disulfide bond, one variable and forming the antigen-binding site with the cognate beta domain, one constant
  • a transmembrane segment (TM1)
  • a short cytoplasmic tail
  • conjugated GlycoP
