InnateDB Annotation
Summary
Pglyrp2 is a member of the Peptidoglycan Recognition Proteins (PGRP) family and recognizes peptidoglycan, a structural component of bacterial cell walls, as a part of innate immune response against infections.
InnateDB Annotation from Orthologs
Summary
[Homo sapiens] PGLYRP2 is a secreted innate immunity protein that is expressed in the liver and is conserved from insects to mammals, it recognizes bacterial peptidoglycan, and functions in antibacterial immunity and inflammation.

Entrez Gene
Summary This gene does not have any Entrez summary - the following is the summary from its human ortholog ENSG00000161031:
This gene encodes a peptidoglycan recognition protein, which belongs to the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase 2 family. This protein hydrolyzes the link between N-acetylmuramoyl residues and L-amino acid residues in bacterial cell wall glycopeptides, and thus may play a scavenger role by digesting biologically active peptidoglycan into biologically inactive fragments.
