KIRs constitute a family of slightly polymorphic receptors with distinct MHC-I-binding profiles for classical HLA-A, HLA-B, and HLA-C molecules. Most KIRs with two Ig domains (KIR2DL) recognize subsets of the HLA-C allotypes.

KIR2DL2 signaling blocks the initiation of activating responses downstream of HLA-C via SHP-1,SHP-2.
KIR2DL2 signaling inhibits IFNG secretion and Ca2+ mobilization, probably via inhibition of NKG2D-DAP10 signaling.

Interactions of KIR2DL2 or KIR2DL3 (KIR2DL2/3) with HLA-Cw3-related allotypes on melanomas resulted in decreased tumor cell lysis.
