Product Specs

Introduction
Hepatitis A Virus Cellular Receptor 2 (HAVCR2) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. It plays a role in controlling macrophage activation and inhibiting T-helper type 1 lymphocyte (Th1)-mediated auto- and alloimmune responses. Additionally, HAVCR2 stimulates immunological tolerance.

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Structure

The HAVCR2 gene encodes a type I membrane protein that consists of an immunoglobulin variable-like (IgV) domain, a mucin-like domain, and a cytoplasmic domain with a tyrosine phosphorylation motif . The protein is approximately 301 amino acids in length and shares significant homology with the hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1 (HAVCR1), also known as TIM-1 or Kim1 .

Function and Role in the Immune System

HAVCR2 is a critical negative regulator in the immune system, acting as a checkpoint in peripheral tolerance and innate immune and inflammatory responses . It is specifically expressed on activated Th1 cells and CD11b+ macrophages . The protein regulates macrophage activation and enhances the severity of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in mice .

Interaction with Hepatitis A Virus

HAVCR2 is related to the hepatitis A virus cellular receptor (HAVCR1), which the hepatitis A virus (HAV) uses to infect cells . The interaction of HAV with soluble forms of its cellular receptor shares the physiological requirements of infectivity in cell culture . This interaction is crucial for understanding the cell entry process of HAV and its pathogenesis .

Recombinant Forms

Recombinant forms of HAVCR2, such as the mouse recombinant version, are used in research to study its function and interaction with various ligands. These recombinant proteins are valuable tools for investigating the molecular mechanisms underlying immune responses and viral infections.

Clinical Implications

The role of HAVCR2 in regulating immune responses makes it a potential target for therapeutic interventions in autoimmune diseases and cancer. By modulating the activity of HAVCR2, it may be possible to enhance immune responses against tumors or reduce inflammation in autoimmune conditions.
