Functions as docking site for PI3-kinase PIK3R1 and GRB2. Interaction of ULBPs with KLRK1-HCST triggers calcium mobilization and activation of the PIK3R1, MAP2K/ERK, and JAK2/STAT5 signaling pathways. Both PIK3R1 and GRB2 are required for full KLRK1-HCST-mediated activation and ultimate killing of target cells. In NK cells, KLRK1-HCST signaling directly induces cytotoxicity and enhances cytokine production initiated via DAP12/TYROBP-associated receptors. In T-cells, it provides primarily costimulation for TCR-induced signals. KLRK1-HCST receptor plays a role in immune surveillance against tumors and is required for cytolysis of tumors cells; indeed, melanoma cells that do not express KLRK1 ligands escape from immune surveillance mediated by NK cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10426994, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10528161, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11015446, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11777960, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12740575, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12740576, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16002667, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16339517, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16582911, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18097042}. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |DAP10| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase binding| |positive regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling| |regulation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase signaling| |signaling receptor binding| |cell surface| |protein phosphorylation| |positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction| |regulation of immune response| |phosphorylation| |positive regulation of signal transduction| |regulation of immune system process| |positive regulation of cell communication| |positive regulation of signaling| |regulation of intracellular signal transduction| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp432|YM155 0.001μM R08 exp432]]|1.81| |[[:results:exp409|THZ531 0.11μM R07 exp409]]|1.99| |[[:results:exp260|ABT-702 0.1μM R06 exp260]]|2.27| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 18029 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: -1.17 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='HCST Expression in NALM6 Cells: -1.17'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2025/12/10 20:19by 127.0.0.1
