Description
Mouse Qa-2 is a 40kD GPI-linked surface protein. It is a member of nonclassical MHC class Ib molecule encoded by Q5, Q6, Q7, Q9, and Q10 genes of H-2 complex. Qa-2 is a nonpolymorphic molecule primarily expressed on mouse T and B cells. The expression level of Qa-2 on mature T cells is higher than B cells. Different mouse strains are with various level of Qa-2 expression. Qa-2, in association with beta2-microglobulin, binds to peptide and plays a role in antigen presentation.
