Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily G member 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KLRG1 gene.[5][6][7][8][9]

Function

[edit]

Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes that can mediate lysis of certain tumor cells and virus-infected cells without previous activation. They can also regulate specific humoral and cell-mediated immunity. The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the killer cell lectin-like receptor (KLR) family, which is a group of transmembrane proteins preferentially expressed in NK cells. Studies in mice suggested that the expression of this gene may be regulated by MHC class I molecules.[9]

KLRG1 is a lymphocyte co-inhibitory, or immune checkpoint, receptor expressed predominantly on late-differentiated effector and effector memory CD8+ T and NK cells. Its ligands are E-cadherin and N-cadherin with similar affinities,[10] respective markers of epithelial and mesenchymal cells.[11] Targeting of other co-inhibitory receptors for applications in oncology has gained widespread interest[12][13][14] (e.g., CTLA-4, PD-1, and its ligand PD-L1). Unlike the obvious enhanced immune activation present in CTLA-4 and PD-1 gene knockout mice,[15][16] KLRG1 knockout mice initially were found to have no abnormal features,[17] though were subsequently found to have enhanced immunity in a tuberculosis challenge model.[18]

The characterization of KLRG1 as a “senescent” marker, but other co-inhibitory receptors as “exhaustion” markers,[19][20][21] has contributed to relatively fewer studies on this molecule.
