LAMP3 lysosomal associated membrane protein 3

Gene ID: 27074, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: LAMP; CD208; DCLAMP; LAMP-3; TSC403; DC LAMP; DC-LAMP

Summary

Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent antigen-presenting cells. Immature DCs efficiently capture antigens and differentiate into interdigitating dendritic cells (IDCs) in lymphoid tissues that induce primary T-cell responses (summary by de Saint-Vis et al., 1998 [PubMed 9768752]).[supplied by OMIM, Dec 2010]
