Predicted to enable natural killer cell lectin-like receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell surface receptor signaling pathway. Located in cell surface and endoplasmic reticulum.
RGD Description
This gene encodes a member of the natural killer cell receptor C-type lectin family. The encoded protein inhibits osteoclast formation and contains a transmembrane domain near the N-terminus as well as the C-type lectin-like extracellular domain. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
