Protein Information
Name	CLEC2A
Synonyms	KACL
Function	Membrane-bound protein expressed mainly on keratinocytes which acts as a ligand to stimulate the activating receptor NKp65/KLRF2, expressed on the surface of natural killer (NK) cells (PubMed:25510854). Facilitates thereby dedicated immune recognition of keratinocytes leading to natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity (PubMed:20194751). Also plays a role in modulating the extent of T-cell expansion (PubMed:18550855).
Cellular Location	Cell membrane; Single-pass type II membrane protein
Tissue Location	Mainly expressed in skin. Also expressed in keratinocytes, spleen, thymus, small intestine, peripheral blood monocytes, bone marrow, ovary, testis and skin. High expression in CD8(+), B-lymphocytes and naive CD4(+) T-cells. Restricted mostly to proliferating lymphocytes. Not detected in myeloid leukocytes or natural killer (NK) cells.
