Rabbit anti-Human CLEC1B Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

Q9P126

Target Species

Human

Target Name

CLEC1B

Target Full Name

C-type lectin domain family 1 member B

Target Function

C-type lectin-like receptor that functions as a platelet receptor for the lymphatic endothelial marker, PDPN. After ligand activation, signals via sequential activation of SRC and SYK tyrosine kinases leading to activation of PLCG2.; (Microbial infection) Acts as a receptor for the platelet-aggregating snake venom protein rhodocytin. Rhodocytin binding leads to tyrosine phosphorylation and this promotes the binding of spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) and initiation of downstream tyrosine phosphorylation events and activation of PLCG2.; (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment factor for Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and facilitates its capture by platelets.

Target Subcellular Location

Membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein.

Target Tissue Specificity

Expressed preferentially in the liver. Also expressed in immune cells of myeloid origin and on the surface of platelets.

Target Background

Natural killer (NK) cells express multiple calcium-dependent (C-type) lectin-like receptors, such as CD94 (KLRD1; MIM 602894) and NKG2D (KLRC4; MIM 602893), that interact with major histocompatibility complex class I molecules and either inhibit or activate cytotoxicity and cytokine secretion. CLEC2 is a C-type lectin-like receptor expressed in myeloid cells and NK cells (Colonna et al., 2000 [PubMed 10671229]).
