CD70 antigen

UniProtKB accession:  P32970

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Expressed at the plasma membrane of B cells, it is the ligand of the CD27 receptor which is specifically expressed at the surface of T cells (PubMed:28011863, PubMed:28011864, PubMed:8387892). The CD70-CD27 signaling pathway mediates antigen-specific T cell activation and expansion which in turn provides immune surveillance of B cells (PubMed:28011863, PubMed:28011864).
