CLEC6A

Dectin-2 or C-type lectin domain containing 6A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CLEC6A gene. Dectin-2 is a member of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. The encoded protein is a type II transmembrane protein with an extracellular carbohydrate recognition domain. It functions as a pattern recognition receptor…
