Biological function summary
The MICA protein acts as a ligand for the NKG2D receptor an activating receptor found on NK cells and some T-cell subsets. MICA does not require expression as part of a complex with β2-microglobulin for function. When cells express MICA they signal distress allowing immune cells to target and destroy potentially harmful cells such as those infected with viruses or transformed into cancer cells. This interaction is an important component of the immune surveillance system.
Pathways
MICA functions within the natural cytotoxicity effector pathway heavily involved in immune responses. It is also relevant in the DNA damage response pathways. Within these pathways MICA interacts with proteins like NKG2D and plays a part in mediating cellular responses to stress and damage. These interactions enhance the capacity of immune cells to recognize and eliminate abnormal cells.
