background | The genetic and functional analysis of β2-microglobulin (B2M), a component of the HLA class-I complex.Acquired homozygous loss of B2M that caused lack of cell-surface HLA Class I expression in the tumor and a matched patient-derived xenograft (PDX). Downregulation of B2M was also found in two additional PDXs established from ICI-resistant tumors. |
molecular weight | The protein has a predicted MW of 12.8 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 13-15 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. |

Mass 13715Da |
Function Component of the class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC). Involved in the presentation of peptide antigens to the immune system. Exogenously applied M.tuberculosis EsxA or EsxA-EsxB (or EsxA expressed in host) binds B2M and decreases its export to the cell surface (total protein levels do not change), probably leading to defects in class I antigen presentation (PubMed:25356553). |
Subellular location Secreted. Cell surface. Note=Detected in serum and urine (PubMed:1336137, PubMed:7554280).; Note=(Microbial infection) In the presence of M.tuberculosis EsxA-EsxB complex decreased amounts of B2M are found on the cell surface (PubMed:25356553). |
Structure Heterodimer of an alpha chain and a beta chain. Beta-2-microglobulin is the beta-chain of major histocompatibility complex class I molecules. Polymers of beta 2-microglobulin can be found in tissues from patients on long-term hemodialysis. B2M alone (not in complex with HLA-I) interacts with M.tuberculosis EsxA (ESAT-6) and an EsxA-EsxB (CFP-10) complex; the tripartite complex can be detected in the host endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:25356553). The B2M-EsxA complex can be detected in patients with pleural tuberculosis and is stable from pH 4.0 to 8.0 and in the presence of 2M NaCl (PubMed:25356553). Forms a heterotrimer with HLA-E and a self- or a foreign peptide (PubMed:9427624). Forms a heterotrimer with HLA-G and a self-peptide (PubMed:17056715). Forms a heterotrimer with HLA-F and a self-peptide (PubMed:10605026). Forms a heterotrimer with MR1 and a metabolite antigen. |
Post-translational modification Glycation of Ile-21 is observed in long-term hemodialysis patients. |
