Biological function summary
HCST contributes to the activation and proliferation of NK and T cells. It operates as part of a protein complex with the receptor NKG2D. This interaction results in the promotion of immune responses necessary for targeting and destroying infected or cancerous cells. HCST's role in immune signaling highlights its importance in maintaining the body's defense mechanisms ensuring effective immune surveillance and response.
Pathways
HCST plays a significant role in the NKG2D-mediated signaling pathway. This pathway is vital for the cytotoxic function of NK cells allowing them to identify and eliminate cells that display stress-induced ligands. Besides its association with NKG2D HCST helps regulate pathways involving the PI3K-Akt signaling often activated in immune responses and cellular survival mechanisms. In this context it interacts with proteins like DAP12 which also facilitate NK cell activation and cytokine production.

General info
Function
Transmembrane adapter protein which associates with KLRK1 to form an activation receptor KLRK1-HCST in lymphoid and myeloid cells; this receptor plays a major role in triggering cytotoxicity against target cells expressing cell surface ligands such as MHC class I chain-related MICA and MICB, and UL16-binding proteins (ULBPs); these ligands are up-regulated by stress conditions and pathological state such as viral infection and tumor transformation. Functions as a docking site for PI3-kinase PIK3R1 and GRB2. Interaction of ULBPs with KLRK1-HCST triggers calcium mobilization and activation of the PIK3R1, MAP2K/ERK, and JAK2/STAT5 signaling pathways. Both PIK3R1 and GRB2 are required for full KLRK1-HCST-mediated activation and ultimate killing of target cells. In NK cells, KLRK1-HCST signaling directly induces cytotoxicity and enhances cytokine production initiated via DAP12/TYROBP-associated receptors. In T-cells, it provides primarily costimulation for TCR-induced signals. KLRK1-HCST receptor plays a role in immune surveillance against tumors and is required for cytolysis of tumors cells; indeed, melanoma cells that do not express KLRK1 ligands escape from immune surveillance mediated by NK cells.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the DAP10 family.
Post-translational modifications
Phosphorylated; PIK3R1 and GRB2 associate specifically with tyrosine-phosphorylated HCST.. O-glycosylated.
