CD83 — CD83 molecule
CD83 belongs to a gene co-expression module in 12 of 28 SCUBA cell types. Each module groups genes that rise and fall together in that cell type; the genes it shares a module with are its closest co-expression partners there.

Function
Transmembrane glycoprotein predominantly found on the surface of many immune cells including dendritic cells or lymphocytes that plays various roles in immune response regulation. Plays an essential role in CD4(+) T-selection, differentiation and stability by regulating the activity of the major E3 ubiquitin ligase responsible for controlling MHCII trafficking MARCHF8. Also inhibits MARCHF1 association with MHCII or CD86 to prevent their ubiquitination and subsequent degradation. In addition, acts as an important modulator of protective responses against acute infections (By similarity).
