MICA (MHC Class I Polypeptide-related Sequence A, MIC-A, PERB11.1, FLJ60820, MGC111087)

MICA encodes the highly polymorphic MHC (HLA) class I chain-related gene A. The protein product is expressed on the cell surface, although unlike canonical class I molecules does not seem to associate with beta-2-microglobulin. It is thought that MICA functions as a stress-induced antigen that is broadly recognized by intestinal epithelial gamma delta T cells.

Applications
Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested.
