Function
Integral membrane glycoprotein that plays an essential role in the immune response and serves multiple functions in responses against both external and internal offenses. In T-cells, functions primarily as a coreceptor for MHC class I molecule:peptide complex. The antigens presented by class I peptides are derived from cytosolic proteins while class II derived from extracellular proteins. Interacts simultaneously with the T-cell receptor (TCR) and the MHC class I proteins presented by antigen presenting cells (APCs). In turn, recruits the Src kinase LCK to the vicinity of the TCR-CD3 complex. LCK then initiates different intracellular signaling pathways by phosphorylating various substrates ultimately leading to lymphokine production, motility, adhesion and activation of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs). This mechanism enables CTLs to recognize and eliminate infected cells and tumor cells. In NK-cells, the presence of CD8A homodimers at the cell surface provides a survival mechanism allowing conjugation and lysis of multiple target cells. CD8A homodimer molecules also promote the survival and differentiation of activated lymphocytes into memory CD8 T-cells.

Cellular Location
Isoform 1: Cell membrane. CD8A localizes to lipid rafts only when associated with its partner CD8B.
Isoform 2: Secreted
Involvement in disease
CD8 deficiency, familial (CD8 deficiency): An immunologic defect characterized by absence of CD8+ cells, leading to recurrent bacterial infections.
Topology
Extracellular: 22-182
Helical: 183-203
Cytoplasmic: 204-235
PTM
Palmitoylated, but association with CD8B seems to be more important for the enrichment of CD8A in lipid rafts.
O-glycosylated.
Phosphorylated in cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTLs) following activation.
