CLEC2D C-type lectin domain family 2 member D

Gene ID: 29121, updated on 17-Jun-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CLAX; LLT1; OCIL

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the natural killer cell receptor C-type lectin family. The encoded protein inhibits osteoclast formation and contains a transmembrane domain near the N-terminus as well as the C-type lectin-like extracellular domain. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
