Background

SLAM family member 6; also known as Activating NK receptor; NK-T-B-antigen; NTB-A; SLAMF6; KALI and Ly108; is a single-pass type I membrane protein which belongs to the CD2 subfamily of the immunoglobulin superfamily. SLAMF6 / Ly108 contains one Ig-like (immunoglobulin-like) domain. It is expressed by all (resting and activated) natural killer cells (NK) ; T- and B-lymphocytes. SLAMF6 / Ly108 triggers cytolytic activity only in natural killer cells (NK) expressing high surface densities of natural cytotoxicity receptors. SLAMF6 / Ly108 is a homodimer. It interacts with PTN6 and; upon phosphorylation; with PTN11 and SH2D1A/SAP. SLAMF6 / Ly108 undergoes tyrosine phosphorylation and associates with the Src homology 2 domain-containing protein (SH2D1A) as well as with SH2 domain-containing phosphatases (SHPs) . It may function as a coreceptor in the process of NK cell activation. SLAMF6 / Ly108 can also mediate inhibitory signals in NK cells from X-linked lymphoproliferative patients.
