Gene information for CLEC2B (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9976
Official gene symbolCLEC2B
Full nameC-type lectin domain family 2, member B
Aliases,AICL,CLECSF2,HP10085,IFNRG1,
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 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]
