Function
(Microbial infection) Alternative coreceptor with CD4 for HIV-1 infection.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Cell membrane (Multi-pass membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Expressed by monocytes and IL2-activated NK cells. Abundantly expressed on CD14+/CD16- monocytes and weakly on CD14+/CD16+ monocytes, type 2 dendritic cells (DCs) and plasmacytoid DCs (at protein level)
Disease Association: Polycystic lung disease (PCLUD) : An autosomal recessive disease characterized by pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, marked peribronchovascular and parenchymal lymphocytosis, peribronchiolar pulmonary fibrosis, progressive diffuse parenchymal lung cyst formation and enlargement, progressive obstructive airflow limitation, and recurrent secondary infections. Additional features may include digital clubbing, allergies, and atopic dermatitis. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry]
