CLEC4A - C-type lectin domain family 4 member A Gene
Also Known as DCIR; LLIR; CD367; DDB27; hDCIR; CLECSF6; HDCGC13P
Species: Homo sapiens
About CLEC4A
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 890 orthologues and 14 paralogues. Broad expression in appendix (RPKM 5.2), bone marrow (RPKM 2.2) and 20 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. Members of this family share a common protein fold and have diverse functions, such as cell adhesion, cell-cell signalling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The encoded type 2 transmembrane protein may play a role in inflammatory and immune response. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. This gene is closely linked to Other CTL/CTLD superfamily members on chromosome 12p13 in the natural killer gene complex region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
