Crystal structure of tetrameric fibrinogen-like recognition domain of FIBCD1
Function
[FBCD1_HUMAN] Acetyl group-binding receptor which shows a high-affinity and calcium-dependent binding to acetylated structures such as chitin, some N-acetylated carbohydrates, and amino acids, but not to their non-acetylated counterparts. Can facilitate the endocytosis of acetylated components.[1] [2]
About this Structure
4m7h is a 2 chain structure. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
