ID:CD8B_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=T-cell surface glycoprotein CD8 beta chain; AltName: CD_antigen=CD8b; Flags: Precursor; FUNCTION: Identifies cytotoxic/suppressor T-cells that interact with MHC class I bearing targets. CD8 is thought to play a role in the process of T-cell mediated killing. SUBUNIT: In general heterodimer of an alpha and a beta chain linked by two disulfide bonds. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 1: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Probable). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 2: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Probable). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 3: Secreted (Probable). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 4: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Probable). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 5: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein (Probable). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 6: Secreted (Probable). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 7: Secreted (Probable). SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Isoform 8: Secreted (Probable). TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Isoform 1, isoform 3, isoform 5, isoform 6, isoform 7 and isoform 8 are expressed in both thymus and peripheral CD8+ T-cells. Expression of isoform 1 is higher in thymus CD8+ T-cells than in peripheral CD8+ T-cells. Expression of isoform 6 is higher in peripheral CD8+ T-cells than in thymus CD8+ T-cells. PTM: Phosphorylated as a consequence of T-cell activation (Potential). SIMILARITY: Contains 1 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=AAD13877.1; Type=Erroneous gene model prediction; WEB RESOURCE: Name=Wikipedia; Note=CD8 entry; URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD8";
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
