CD112R gene encodes a single transmembrane protein consisting of a single extracellular IgV domain. Its long intracellular domain contains two tyrosine residues, one of which is within an ITIM-like motif. CD112R was initially named PVRIG for the homology observed between its second exon and the variable immunoglobulin domain of the polio virus receptor (PVR/CD155) and polio virus receptor-like (PVRL) genes. CD112R is a cell surface receptor for CD112/Nectin-2, it compete against CD226 in binding to CD112. Following interaction with CD112, CD112R inhibits T-cell proliferation and the disruption of interaction between CD112R and CD112 enhances T cell response. Published studies suggest that CD112R is a novel co-inhibitory receptor, or a checkpoint molecule, that suppressed TCR medicated signal.

Cell surface receptor for NECTIN2. May act as a coinhibitory receptor that suppresses T-cell receptor-mediated signals. Following interaction with NECTIN2, inhibits T-cell proliferation. Competes with CD226 for NECTIN2-binding.

Cell membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein .

Highly and selectively expressed by undifferentiated rather than differentiated embryonic stem cells (ESC). Levels rapidly diminish as soon as ESC's differentiate (at protein levels). Expressed in almost all epithelial cell membranes but not on mesodermal or neural cell membranes. Found on the surface of adenocarcinoma.
