programmed cell death 1 ligand 2; PD-1 ligand 2; PD-L2; PDCD1 ligand 2; butyrophilin B7-DC; B7-DC; CD273 (PDCD1LG2, B7DC, CD273, PDCD1L2, PDL2)
Function:
- role in costimulatory signaling
- essential for T-cell proliferation & IFNG production
- interaction with PDCD1 inhibits T-cell proliferation by blocking cell cycle progression & cytokine production
- interacts with PDCD1 (putative)
Structure:
- belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily, BTN/MOG family
- contains 1 Ig-like C2-type domain
- contains 1 Ig-like V-type domain
Compartment:
- isoform 3: secreted (probable)
- isoform 2: endomembrane system
- isoform 1: cell membrane
- single-pass type 1 membrane protein
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3
Expression:
- highly expressed in heart, placenta, pancreas, lung & liver
- weakly expressed in spleen, lymph nodes & thymus
- up-regulated by IFNG/IFN-gamma stimulation in monocytes
- induced on dendritic cells grown from peripheral blood mononuclear cells with CSF2 & IL4/interleukin-4
