    basic FUNCTION
  • antigen-presenting protein, that binds self and non-self lipid and glycolipid Ags and presents them to T-cell receptors on natural killer cells
  • presenting lipid A on dendritic cells (Cui 2009)
  • related to the peptide-presenting MHC class I family
  • CD1A, CD1B, CD1C, CD1D bind and present lipid-based antigens to T cells
    • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS immunity/defense
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling signal transduction
    a component
  • constituent of membrane glycoprotein
  • forming heterodimer with beta-2-microglobulin
    • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • B2M associated
  • interacting with saposin C
    • cell & other
    REGULATION
    Other
  • Ag capture is regulated by pH, requiring vesicular acidification to bind lipid antigens (Relloso 2008)
    • ASSOCIATED DISORDERS
