KIR2DL4

The KIR gene family currently consists of 15 gene loci (KIR2DL1, KIR2DL2/L3, KIR2DL4, KIR2DL5A, KIR2DL5B, KIR2DS1, KIR2DS2, KIR2DS3, KIR2DS4, KIR2DS5, KIR3DL1/S1, KIR3DL2, KIR3DL3 and two pseudogenes, KIR2DP1 and KIR3DP1) encoded within a 100-200 Kb region of the Leukocyte Receptor Complex (LRC) located on chromosome 19 (19q13.4) . The LRC constitutes a large, 1 Mb, and dense cluster of rapidly evolving immune genes which contains genes encoding other cell surface molecules with distinctive Ig-like extra-cellular domains. These genes include, from centromere to telomere, Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (LILR) and Leukocyte-Associated Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (LAIR), FcGammaR as well as the Natural cytotoxicity-triggering Receptor 1 (NCR1) . In addition the extended LRC contains genes encoding the Sialic acid binding Immunoglobulin-like Lectins (SIGLEC) and the CD66 family members such as the carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) genes as well as the genes encoding the transmembrane adaptor molecules DAP10 and DAP12.
