Human C-type lectin domain family 4 member M,CLEC4M ELI

Probable pathogen-recognition receptor involved in peripheral immune surveillance in liver.

May mediate the endocytosis of pathogens which are subsequently degraded in lysosomal compartments.

Is a receptor for ICAM3, probably by binding to mannose-like carbohydrates.
