Protein attributes

Sequence length	275 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at protein level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Cell surface receptor that modulates signaling cascades and mediates tyrosine phosphorylation of target MAP kinases. Ref.2 Ref.3
Subunit structure	Interacts with PTPN6 and PTPN11. Ref.2
Subcellular location	Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein. Note: Ligand binding leads to internalization. Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.1 Ref.9
Tissue specificity	Detected in normal myeloid cells and in acute myeloid leukemia cells. Detected in neutrophils, eosinophils, monocytes and dendritic cells. Detected in spleen macrophage-rich red pulp and in lymph node (at protein level). Detected in peripheral blood leukocytes, dendritic cells, bone marrow, monocytes, mononuclear leukocytes and macrophages. Ref.2 Ref.3 Ref.1 Ref.9
Induction	Down-regulated in activated leukocytes recruited to a site of inflammation. Ref.9
Domain	Contains 1 copy of a cytoplasmic motif that is referred to as the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitor motif (ITIM). This motif is involved in modulation of cellular responses. The phosphorylated ITIM motif can bind the SH2 domain of several SH2-containing phosphatases.
Post-translational modification	Highly N-glycosylated. Glycosylation varies between cell types. Ref.2 Ref.9 Ref.8
Sequence similarities	Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.
