CLEC10A

C-type lectin domain family 10 member A also known as CLEC10A is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the CLEC10A is_associated_with::gene.

Function
This gene encodes a member of the is_associated_with::C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. Members of this family share a common protein fold and have diverse functions, such as is_associated_with::cell adhesion, cell-cell signalling, is_associated_with::glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The encoded type 2 transmembrane protein may function as a cell surface antigen. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
