This gene encodes a cell surface receptor expressed on natural killer (NK) cells (and some T cells) that mediate non-major histocompatibility complex (MHC) restricted killing. The interaction between NK-cell and target cells via this receptor is thought to modulate NK-cell cytolytic activity. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.,CD244,2B4,NAIL,NKR2B4,Nmrk,SLAMF4,Immunology & Inflammation,CD markers,Stem Cells,Hematopoietic Progenitors,CD244
