Gene information for CLEC12A (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID160364
Official gene symbolCLEC12A
Full nameC-type lectin domain family 12, member A
Aliases,CLL-1,CLL1,DCAL-2,MGC70602,MICL,
Gene summaryThis 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 protein encoded by this gene is a negative regulator of granulocyte and monocyte function. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. This gene is closely linked to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members in the natural killer gene complex region on chromosome 12p13. [provided by RefSeq]
