| Genome | |
| Summary | This gene belongs to the highly polymorphic family of C-type lectin-like Ly49 genes that are expressed in natural killer (NK) cells. The encoded protein is a homodimeric type II transmembrane receptor located at the cell surface and inhibits NK cell activation upon ligand binding. This gene is located in a cluster of several Klra paralogs on chromosome 6. Different strains of mice show variation in the number of paralogs, including strain specific duplications, deletions and pseudogene sequences.
