Plays an inhibitory role on natural killer (NK) cells and T-cell functions upon binding to their non-MHC ligands. May mediate missing self recognition by binding to a highly conserved site on classical cadherins, enabling it to monitor expression of E-cadherin/CDH1, N-cadherin/CDH2 and R-cadherin/CDH4 on target cells.
Cell membrane ; Single-pass type II membrane protein .
Expressed specifically on natural killer (NK) cells and T-cells, mainly CD8 T-cells.
