Contents

Crystal structure of carbohydrate recognition domain of Blood Dendritic Cell Antigen-2 (BDCA2) lectin (crystal form-3)

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 24425442

Function

[CLC4C_HUMAN] Involved in antigen-capturing. Target ligand into antigen processing and peptide-loading compartments for presentation to T-cells. May mediate potent inhibition of induction of IFN-alpha/beta expression in plasmacytoid dendritic cells. May act as a signaling receptor that activates protein-tyrosine kinases and mobilizes intracellular calcium. Does not seem to bind mannose.[1] [2]
