NK-Tumor Recognition Protein
The cell surface NKTR Protein is involved in the recognition of tumor cells by large granular lymphocytes, a subpopulation of white blood cells that kill tumor cells by an MHC-independent mechanism. The protein contains a unique amino acid structure and an external cyclophilin-related domain. (from OMIM 161565 and NCI) (NCI Thesaurus)
