TissueNA
Tissue SpecificityUbiquitous (PubMed:7624800, PubMed:9780177). Low expression is detected in peripheral blood B cells, T cells, monocytes and in bronchial epithelial cells (at protein level) (PubMed:27043408). Expressed in plasmablasts or plasma B cells in the lamina propria of ileum, appendix and colon (at protein level) (PubMed:19760593). Highly expressed on a subset of CD45-positive CD3-positive thymocytes (at protein level) (PubMed:22692454). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19760593, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22692454, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27043408, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7624800, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9780177}.

Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000255}. Note=In the absence of antigen remains within the endoplasmic reticulum where it acts as a metabolite sensor. Antigen binding triggers trafficking of the ternary complex to the plasma membrane. After presentation, most of these complexes are rapidly internalized and degraded via endocytosis. A small subset recycles via endosomes back to the plasma membrane and may thus acquire and present new antigens that do not efficiently reach the endoplasmic reticulum. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:27043408}.;
