Summary
CLEC4C (BDCA-2) signalling inhibits TLR-9-agonist-induced plasmacytoid dendritic cell activation (through the inhibition of CD86 and CD40) and antigen presentation.
Entrez Gene
Summary This gene encodes a member of the 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 cell adhesion, cell-cell signalling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The encoded type 2 transmembrane protein may play a role in dendritic cell function. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
