CLEC1A

Also known as CLEC-1, CLEC1, C-type lectin domain family 1 member A

C-type lectin domain family 1 member A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLEC1A gene.

Gene data

CLEC1A

Name: C-type lectin domain family 1 member A
Type: protein-coding
Aliases: CLEC-1, CLEC1

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 signaling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The encoded protein may play a role in regulating dendritic cell function. This gene is closely linked to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members on chromosome 12p13 in the natural killer gene complex region. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

C-type lectin domain family 1 member A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLEC1A gene.

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 protein may play a role in regulating dendritic cell function. Alternative splice variants have been described but their biological nature has not been determined. This gene is closely linked to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members on chromosome 12p13 in the natural killer gene complex region.
