Function

Self-ligand receptor of the signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) family. SLAM receptors triggered by homo- or heterotypic cell-cell interactions are modulating the activation and differentiation of a wide variety of immune cells and thus are involved in the regulation and interconnection of both innate and adaptive immune response. Activities are controlled by presence or absence of small cytoplasmic adapter proteins, SH2D1A/SAP and/or SH2D1B/EAT-2. May participate in adhesion reactions between T lymphocytes and accessory cells by homophilic interaction. Promotes T-cell differentiation into a helper T-cell Th17 phenotype leading to increased IL-17 secretion; the costimulatory activity requires SH2D1A (PubMed:22184727). Promotes recruitment of RORC to the IL-17 promoter (PubMed:22989874). May be involved in the maintenance of peripheral cell tolerance by serving as a negative regulator of the immune response. May disable autoantibody responses and inhibit IFN-gamma secretion by CD4(+) T-cells. May negatively regulate the size of thymic innate CD8(+) T-cells and the development of invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells (By similarity).

Activity summary

CD229 also known as SLAMF3 or Ly9 is a transmembrane protein that weighs approximately 80 kDa. This protein belongs to the CD2 subset of the immunoglobulin superfamily. You can find high expression of CD229 in various lymphoid tissues such as the spleen thymus and peripheral blood lymphocytes. Its expression is notably high in T cells B cells and natural killer (NK) cells. As a homophilic receptor CD229 aids in cell-cell adhesion playing an essential role in immune response regulation among lymphocytes.

Biological function summary

CD229 influences signaling within immune cells. It functions as a mediator of adhesion and activation signaling pathways. CD229 does not act alone and often works as part of a receptor complex that may include CD48 and other members of the SLAM family. Besides its role in cellular adhesion CD229 participates in balancing immune activation and immune tolerance demonstrating its importance in developing and maintaining a robust immune response.

Pathways

CD229 participates in the adaptive immune signaling pathways. It links with other signaling proteins such as SAP (SLAM-associated protein) a critical modulator of downstream signaling cascades. SAP interacts with SLAM-family receptors including CD229 to regulate T and B cell activation and function. The involvement of CD229 in various immune signaling pathways positions it as a significant player in the broader context of cellular communication and response within the immune system.

Associated diseases and disorders

CD229's aberrant expression or dysfunction links to autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and certain hematological malignancies. Altered CD229 expression has been observed in association with SLE where it may contribute to dysregulated immune responses. In hematological cancers CD229 overexpression or mutations can disrupt immune cell regulation promoting tumor progression. CD229 may interact with other SLAM-family proteins like CD244 which have implications in disease pathology and can be targets for therapeutic interventions.
