The Human Cytomegalovirus MHC Class I Homolog UL18 Inhibits LIR-1(+) but Activates LIR-1(−) NK Cells

The inhibitory leukocyte Ig-like receptor 1 (LIR-1, also known as ILT2, CD85j, or LILRB1) was identified by its high affinity for the human CMV (HCMV) MHC class I homolog gpUL18. The role of this LIR-1-gpUL18 interaction in modulating NK recognition during HCMV infection has previously not been clea...
