Clec4g Gene Summary [Rat]
Predicted to enable several functions, including exogenous protein binding activity; monosaccharide binding activity; and pattern recognition receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in immune response; positive regulation of viral life cycle; and symbiont entry into host cell. Predicted to act 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. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in external side of plasma membrane. Orthologous to human CLEC4G (C-type lectin domain family 4 member G).

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 rat 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.
