Clec4d Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables immunoglobulin receptor binding activity. Involved in antifungal innate immune response; positive regulation of canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction; and positive regulation of myeloid dendritic cell activation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including Fc-gamma receptor signaling pathway; T cell differentiation involved in immune response; and defense response to other organism. Located in plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including heart; immune system; intestine; liver; and lung. Orthologous to human CLEC4D (C-type lectin domain family 4 member D).

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Clec4d often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
  • extracellular domain
  • signaling receptor activity
  • C-type lectin (CTL)/C-type lectin-like (CTLD) domain
  • Lectin C-type domain
  • protein binding
  • receptor binding
  • mannose binding
