Rat Anti-DCIR (C-type Lectin Domain Family 4, Member A, C-type Lectin Superfamily Member 6, Dendritic Cell Immunoreceptor, Clec4a2, Clecsf6, Dcir, CLEC4A) (PE)
DCIR, also known as Lectin-like Immunoreceptor (LLIR), is a type II membrane protein belonging to the C-type lectin domain family and is designated CLEC4A (previously designated CLECSF6). Four transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. DCIR contains one carbohydrate recognition domain in its C-terminal extracellular domain and an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) in its cytoplasmic domain. Besides DC, DCIR is expressed on B cells, monocytes/macrophages and granulocytes.
