HLA-G

HLA-G belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. This class I molecule is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain and a light chain (beta-2 microglobulin). The heavy chain is anchored in the membrane. HLA-G is expressed on fetal derived placental cells. The heavy chain is approximately 45 kDa and its gene contains 8 exons. Exon one encodes the leader peptide, exons 2 and 3 encode the alpha1 and alpha2 domain, which both bind the peptide, exon 4 encodes the alpha3 domain, exon 5 encodes the transmembrane region, and exon 6 encodes the cytoplasmic tail.

Interaction

Forms a heterotrimer with B2M and a self-peptide (peptide-bound HLA-G-B2M) (PubMed:7584149, PubMed:8805247). HLA-G-B2M complex interacts with components of the antigen processing machinery TAPBP and TAP1-TAP2 complex; this interaction is required for loading of high affinity peptides and heterotrimer translocation to the cell surface (PubMed:7584149). Interacts with CALCR; this interaction is required for appropriate folding (PubMed:9640257). Interacts with COPB1; this interaction mediates the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retrieval of HLA-G-B2M complexes that bind low affinity peptides (PubMed:11520457, PubMed:12582157). On the cell surface, peptide-bound HLA-G-B2M molecules (referred to as monomers) can form disulfide-linked homomultimers, homodimers and homotrimers (PubMed:12454284, PubMed:12874224, PubMed:16455647). Interacts with KIR2DL4; this interaction is direct (PubMed:10190900, PubMed:16366734). Interacts with LILRB1 and LILRB2 receptors; this interaction is direct (PubMed:16455647, PubMed:16366734, PubMed:17056715, PubMed:12853576). Interacts with CD160; this interactions is direct (PubMed:16809620). Interacts with CD8A homodimer; this interaction is direct and might down-regulate T cell receptor signaling (PubMed:12853576). Isoform 2: Forms a non-disulfide-linked homodimer and interacts with LILRB2 (PubMed:28348268).
