General annotation (Comments)

Function

Involved in the initial immune cell clustering during inflammatory response and may regulate chemotactic activity of chemokines. May play a role in melanocortin signaling pathways that regulate energy homeostasis and hair color. Low-affinity receptor for agouti By similarity. Has a critical role in normal myelination in the central nervous system By similarity.

Subcellular location

Isoform 1: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.

Isoform 2: Secreted.

Isoform 3: Secreted.

Tissue specificity

Expressed and secreted by activated T lymphocytes. Expressed at low to moderate levels in peripheral blood leukocytes, spleen, lymph node, tonsil, bone marrow and fetal liver. At very low levels found in thymus. Isoform 2/secreted is the major isoform in peripheral blood leukocytes. Ref.1

Induction

Activation of peripheral blood leukocytes with phytohemagglutinin induces strong expression of the membrane isoform followed by the release of the secreted isoform.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.

Contains 1 CUB domain.

Contains 1 EGF-like domain.

Contains 6 Kelch repeats.

Contains 2 laminin EGF-like domains.

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: O75882-1)

Also known as: Membrane;

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: O75882-2)

Also known as: Secreted;

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1268-1429: IAFSQHSNFM...QPPAQPGTCI → VQTEQ
Isoform 3 (identifier: O75882-3)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     31-104: Missing.
     1268-1429: IAFSQHSNFM...QPPAQPGTCI → VQTEQ
Notes: No experimental confirmation available.
