background:
This gene encodes a heavily glycosylated protein which is a ligand for the NKG2D type II receptor. Binding of the ligand activates the cytolytic response of natural killer (NK) cells, CD8 alphabeta T cells, and gammadelta T cells which express the receptor. This protein is stress-induced and is similar to MHC class I molecules; however, it does not associate with beta-2-microglobulin or bind peptides.

Subunit:
Unlike classical MHC class I molecules, does not form a heterodimer with beta-2-microglobulin. Binds as a monomer to a KLRK1/NKG2D homodimer. KLRK1 forms a complex with HCST/DAP10 in which KLRK1 binds MICB while HCST acts as an adapter molecule which enables signal transduction. Receptor-ligand interaction induces clustering of both proteins in ordered structures called immune synapses and also leads to their intercellular transfer. This is associated with a reduction in the cytotoxicity of KLRK1-expressing cells. Binds to human cytomegalovirus glycoprotein UL16 which causes sequestration of MICB in the endoplasmic reticulum and increases resistance to KLRK1-mediated cytotoxicity.

Subcellular Location:
Cell membrane; Single pass type I membrane protein.

Tissue Specificity:
Widely expressed with the exception of the central nervous system where it is absent. Expressed in many, but not all, epithelial tumors of lung, breast, kidney, ovary, prostate and colon. In hepatocellular carcinomas, expressed in tumor cells but not in surrounding non-cancerous tissue.

Post-translational modifications:
Proteolytically cleaved and released from the cell surface of tumor cells.

DISEASE:
Genetic variations in MICA are a cause of susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) [MIM:36300]. It is a systemic inflammatory disease with autoimmune features and a complex genetic component. It primarily affects the joints and is characterized by inflammatory changes in the synovial membranes and articular structures, widespread fibrinoid degeneration of the collagen fibers in mesenchymal tissues, and by atrophy and rarefaction of bony structures. Note=The MICB*004 allele is asociated with rheumatoid arthritis.
Note=Genetic variation in MICB is associated with cytomegalovirus and herpes simplex virus I seropositivity and this may be associated with schizophrenia risk.

Similarity:
Belongs to the MHC class I family. MIC subfamily.
Contains 1 Ig-like C1-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain.
