Gene summary

This gene encodes a C-type lectin that functions in cell adhesion and pathogen recognition. This receptor recognizes a wide range of evolutionarily divergent pathogens with a large impact on public health, including leprosy and tuberculosis mycobacteria, the Ebola, hepatitis C, HIV-1 and Dengue viruses, and the SARS-CoV acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus. The protein is organized into four distinct domains: a C-terminal carbohydrate recognition domain, a flexible tandem-repeat neck domain, a transmembrane region and an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain involved in internalization. This gene is closely related in terms of both sequence and function to a neighboring gene, CLEC4M (Gene ID: 10332), also known as L-SIGN. The two genes differ in viral recognition and expression patterns, with this gene showing high expression on the surface of dendritic cells. Polymorphisms in the neck region are associated with protection from HIV-1 infection, while single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter of this gene are associated with differing resistance and susceptibility to and severity of infectious disease, including rs4804803, which is associated with SARS severity.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_021155.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Pathogen-recognition receptor expressed on the surface of immature dendritic cells (DCs) and involved in initiation of primary immune response. Thought to mediate the endocytosis of pathogens which are subsequently degraded in lysosomal compartments. The receptor returns to the cell membrane surface and the pathogen-derived antigens are presented to resting T-cells via MHC class II proteins to initiate the adaptive immune response. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11859097}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for HIV-1 and HIV-2. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11799126, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12502850, ECO:0000269|PubMed:1518869}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Cytomegalovirus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12433371, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22496863}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Dengue virus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12682107}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Herpes simplex virus 1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18796707}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for SARS coronavirus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15140961}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Lassa virus (PubMed:23966408). Acts as an attachment receptor for Marburg virusn. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15479853}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Acts as an attachment receptor for Rift valley fever virus and uukuniemi virus. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21767814}.; FUNCTION: (Microbial infection) Probably recognizes in a calcium- dependent manner high mannose N-linked oligosaccharides in a variety of bacterial pathogen antigens, including Leishmania pifanoi LPG, Lewis-x antigen in Helicobacter pylori LPS, mannose in Klebsiella pneumonae LPS, di-mannose and tri-mannose in Mycobacterium tuberculosis ManLAM and Lewis-x antigen in Schistosoma mansoni SEA (PubMed:16379498). Recognition of M.tuberculosis by dendritic cells occurs partially via this molecule (PubMed:16092920, PubMed:21203928). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16092920, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16379498, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21203928}.;
