CLEC2B
Description
The CLEC2B (C-type lectin domain family 2 member B) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 12.
CLEC2B, or C-type lectin domain family 2 member B, is a protein encoded by the CLEC2B gene in humans. It belongs to the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) protein superfamily, known for diverse functions like cell adhesion, signaling, glycoprotein turnover, and immune response. CLEC2B is a type 2 transmembrane protein that may act as a cell activation antigen. An alternative splice variant exists, but its full sequence is unknown. This gene is located near other CTL/CTLD superfamily members on chromosome 12p13, within the natural killer gene complex region.
CLEC2B is also known as AICL, CLECSF2, HP10085, IFNRG1.
