CLEC2B

Also known as AICL, CLECSF2, HP10085, IFNRG1, C-type lectin domain family 2 member B

C-type lectin domain family 2 member B is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLEC2B gene.

Gene data

CLEC2B

Name: C-type lectin domain family 2 member B
Type: protein-coding
Aliases: AICL, CLECSF2, HP10085, IFNRG1

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 function as a cell activation antigen. An alternative splice variant has been described but its full-length sequence 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
