Clec4g Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables polysaccharide binding activity. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of T cell mediated immunity; negative regulation of alpha-beta T cell proliferation; and negative regulation of immature T cell proliferation in thymus. Located in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human CLEC4G (C-type lectin domain family 4 member G). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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 Clec4g often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
