SIGLEC11
Description
The SIGLEC11 (sialic acid binding Ig like lectin 11) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 19.
SIGLEC11 is a protein that binds to sialic acids on the surface of cells. It prefers to bind to alpha-2,8-linked sialic acid. This binding can be blocked by other sialic acids on the same cell surface. SIGLEC11 plays a role in the immune system by acting as an inhibitory receptor. When it binds to a ligand, it gets phosphorylated. This phosphorylation allows SIGLEC11 to recruit phosphatases, which remove phosphate groups from other proteins. This dephosphorylation can block signals from being transmitted through the cell, helping to regulate the immune response.
SIGLEC11 is also known as -.
