[Encoded by human KLRB1 Gene (C-Type Lectin Superfamily, NKRP1 Family) and preferentially expressed by natural killer lymphocytes and some peripheral T-cells, the type II membrane NKRP1A Protein (external C-terminus) contains a 158-amino acid extracellular domain with C-type lectin motifs, a 29-amino acid transmembrane domain, and a 38-amino acid cytoplasmic domain. C-type lectins, including NKRP1 glycoproteins, may regulate NK cell function. NKRP1A protein is 46% identical to rat and mouse NKRP1, and 26% identical to human NKG2A.
