About MARCO

Cytogenetic location: 2q14.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 2:118,942,194-118,994,660 (from NCBI)

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 150 orthologues and 3 paralogues. Biased expression in lung (RPKM 74.5), appendix (RPKM 41.8) and 3 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the class A scavenger receptor family and is part of the innate antimicrobial immune system. The protein may bind both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria via an extracellular, C-terminal, scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) domain. In addition to short cytoplasmic and transmembrane domains, there is an extracellular spacer domain and a long, extracellular collagenous domain. The protein may form a trimeric molecule by the association of the collagenous domains of three identical polypeptide chains. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
