Function

Receptor for class I MHC antigens. Recognizes a broad spectrum of HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-G and HLA-F alleles (PubMed:11169396, PubMed:12853576, PubMed:16455647, PubMed:20448110, PubMed:27859042). Involved in the down-regulation of the immune response and the development of tolerance. Recognizes HLA-G in complex with B2M/beta-2 microglobulin and a nonamer self-peptide (peptide-bound HLA-G-B2M) triggering differentiation of type 1 regulatory T cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, both of which actively maintain maternal-fetal tolerance (PubMed:16455647, PubMed:20448110, PubMed:27859042). Competes with CD8A for binding to class I MHC antigens. Inhibits FCGR1A-mediated phosphorylation of cellular proteins and mobilization of intracellular calcium ions (PubMed:11875462, PubMed:12853576, PubMed:9548455, PubMed:9842885).

Activity summary

ILT-4 also known as Immunoglobulin-like transcript 4 is a transmembrane protein with a molecular weight of approximately 45 kDa. The protein is part of the LILR family and is sometimes referred to as LILRB2 protein. ILT-4 is mainly expressed on myeloid lineage cells including monocytes and dendritic cells. The expression of ILT-4 is important for the modulation of the immune response. Biotinylated ILT-4 and biotinylated LILRB2 versions are used frequently in research to study their interactions and functions.

Biological function summary

ILT-4 plays an important role in the regulation of immune tolerance and inhibition. It is not part of a complex but interacts with other immune regulatory proteins. By binding to MHC class I molecules ILT-4 inhibits the activation of immune responses preventing over-activation and autoimmunity. The ILT-4 protein is critical for helping myeloid cells to maintain a balanced immune response often restricting unnecessary inflammation and promoting tolerance.

Pathways

ILT-4 influences immune signaling pathways such as those that control T cell receptor signaling. ILT-4 interactions with proteins like CD85d and other LILRA6 proteins showcase its involvement in negative regulatory signaling pathways. These pathways are essential for maintaining immune homeostasis and limiting immune-mediated damage during infections or tissue injury.

Associated diseases and disorders

ILT-4 is implicated in cancer and autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis. In cancers ILT-4 modulates the immune environment allowing tumors to evade immune surveillance. In the context of autoimmune disorders aberrant ILT-4 expression or function can lead to insufficient immune regulation contributing to disease progression. CD85d and LILRB2 proteins are also associated with these conditions further influencing ILT-4's role in disease mechanisms.
