NCR3 Gene

natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 3

The protein encoded by this gene is a natural cytotoxicity receptor (NCR) that may aid NK cells in the lysis of tumor cells. The encoded protein interacts with CD3-zeta (CD247), a T-cell receptor. A single nucleotide polymorphism in the 5' untranslated region of this gene has been associated with mild malaria suceptibility. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

NCR1 Gene

natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 1

Predicted to be involved in immune response-regulating signaling pathway. Predicted to act upstream of or within defense response to virus and detection of virus. Predicted to be located in cell surface. Predicted to be part of SWI/SNF complex. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Biomarker of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome; anogenital venereal wart; hepatitis C; and lymphoproliferative syndrome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

TREML3P Gene

triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-like 3, pseudogene

TREML3 is located in a gene cluster on chromosome 6 with the single Ig variable (IgV) domain activating receptors TREM1 (MIM 605085) and TREM2 (MIM 605086), but it has distinct structural and functional properties (Allcock et al., 2003 [PubMed 12645956]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

TREML5P Gene

triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-like 5, pseudogene

NCR2 Gene

natural cytotoxicity triggering receptor 2

Predicted to enable signaling receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular defense response and signal transduction. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cell surface. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

LOC105375057 Gene

TREML2 Gene

triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-like 2

TREML2 is located in a gene cluster on chromosome 6 with the single Ig variable (IgV) domain activating receptors TREM1 (MIM 605085) and TREM2 (MIM 605086), but it has distinct structural and functional properties (Allcock et al., 2003 [PubMed 12645956]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

TREML1 Gene

triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-like 1

This gene encodes a member of the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-like (TREM) family. The encoded protein is a type 1 single Ig domain orphan receptor localized to the alpha-granule membranes of platelets. The encoded protein is involved in platelet aggregation, inflammation, and cellular activation and has been linked to Gray platelet syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]

TREML4 Gene

triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-like 4

Predicted to enable signaling receptor activity. Involved in positive regulation of toll-like receptor 7 signaling pathway. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum; endosome membrane; and lysosomal membrane. Predicted to be active in cell surface. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Mar 2025]

NKTR Gene

natural killer cell triggering receptor

This gene encodes a membrane-anchored protein with a hydrophobic amino terminal domain and a cyclophilin-like PPIase domain. It is present on the surface of natural killer cells and facilitates their binding to targets. Its expression is regulated by IL2 activation of the cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

TREM1 Gene

triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1

This gene encodes a receptor belonging to the Ig superfamily that is expressed on myeloid cells. This protein amplifies neutrophil and monocyte-mediated inflammatory responses triggered by bacterial and fungal infections by stimulating release of pro-inflammatory chemokines and cytokines, as well as increased surface expression of cell activation markers. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]

TREM2 Gene

triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2

This gene encodes a membrane protein that forms a receptor signaling complex with the TYRO protein tyrosine kinase binding protein. The encoded protein functions in immune response and may be involved in chronic inflammation by triggering the production of constitutive inflammatory cytokines. Defects in this gene are a cause of polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy (PLOSL). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]
