C-type Lectin Domain

C-type lectin domain family 7 member A 1 or CLEC7A is a protein, that in the innate immune system, acts against fungal pathogens. CLEC7A can be found in the immune system response cells such as monocytes, macrophages & neutrophils, or in dendritic and T cells. The protein is enhanced by macrophages by using GM-CSF, IL-4, or IL-13, or diminishes by dexamethasone, IL-10 and LPS.

C-type lectin domain family 5-member A isoform 1 (CLEC5A) is part of the CTL/CTLD superfamily which carry various functions, for instance cell-cell signaling, cell adhesion, glycoprotein turnover, in addition to their inflammation & immune response abilities. CLEC5A operates as a cell attachment receptor for all 4 serotypes of Dengue virus in addition to Japanese encephalitis virus. CLEC5A binds to the dengue virus and it triggers signaling through the phosphylation of TYROBP, as a result no viral entrance occurs, however this interaction does stimulate proinflammatory cytokine release. CLEC5A preforms as a positive regulator of osteoclastogenesis and also a main regulator of synovial injury & bone erosion for the period of autoimmune joint inflammation.

C-type Lectin Domain Family 4, Member M (CLEC4M) is a type II integral membrane proteinand A pathogen-recognition receptor which takes part in peripheral immune surveillance in liver. CLEC4M mediates the endocytosis of pathogens which than degraded in lysosomal compartments. CLEC4M is a receptor for ICAM3, binding to mannose-like carbohydrates and also recognizes various evolutionarily divergent pathogens with a large impact on public health, including tuberculosis mycobacteria, and viruses which among them are Ebola, hepatitis C,influenza A, HIV-1, West Nile virus and the SARS-CoV acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus.

C-type lectin domain family 4, member E, also known as CLEC4E is a C-type lectin receptor expressed through a wide range of antigens which presents cells including macrophages, neutrophils, dendritic cells as well as B cells; Furthermore, a variety of stimuli including stress are acknowledged to induce the expression of CLEC4E.

C-type lectin domain family 2, also referred to CLEC2D, is a receptor for KLRB1 which protects target cells against natural killer cell-mediated lysis.It has been shown that CLEC2Dinhibits osteoclast formation and bone resorption. The protein controls the release of interferon-gamma and contains a transmembrane domain near the N-terminus likewisethe C-type lectin-like extracellular domain.

C-type Lectin Domain Family 2, Member B (CLEC2B) belongs to the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. Members of the CTL/CTLD family share a common protein fold and have various functions, such as cell adhesion, cell-cell signaling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The CLEC2B gene is closely connected to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members on chromosome 12p13 in the natural killer gene complex region. CLEC2B is expressed preferentially in lymphoid tissues, and in most hematopoietic cell types.

C-type Lectin Domain Family 1 Member B, also known as CLEC1B. NK-Natural killer cells express multiple calcium-dependent (C-type) lectin-like receptors, for instance CD94 (KLRD1; MIM 602894) and NKG2D (KLRC4; MIM 602893), which interact with major histocompatibility complex class I molecules and either inhibit or else activate cytotoxicity and cytokine secretion. CLEC1B is a C-type lectin-like receptor which is expressed in myeloid cells as well as in NK cells.

C-Type Lectin Domain Family 10, Member A (CLEC10A) is a part of the C-type lectin superfamily. CLEC10A is expressed in immature myeloid dendritic cells and alternatively activated macrophages. CLEC10A takes part in regulating adaptive and innate immune responses and also binds in a calcium dependent way to terminal galactose and N-acetylgalactosamine, linked to serine or threonine.
