    text
  • cleaved into a soluble form found in lysosome lumen
  • LAPTM5 and CD1E colocalize in trans-Golgi and late endosomal compartments
    • basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the immune response
  • helping to expand the repertoire of glycolipidic T cell antigens to optimize antimicrobial immune resposnes
  • related to the peptide-presenting MHC class I family
  • could be a pot
  • participates in the presentation of lipid antigens in dendritic cells
    • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • forming heterodimer with beta-2-microglobulin
    • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interaction of LAPTM5 with CD1E, suggesting that LAPTM5 might influence the role of CD1E in the presentation of lipid antigens
    • cell & other
    REGULATION
    Other mono-ubiquitinated, ubiquitination of CD1E appears to trigger its exit from Golgi compartments and its transport to endosomes
    ASSOCIATED DISORDERS

    Susceptibility
    Variant & Polymorphism other one variant of CD1E with a proline at position 194, does not assist PIM(6) presentation to CD1b-restricted specific T cells, homozygous individuals might display an altered immune response to complex glycolipid Ags
