[5][6] This gene encodes a member of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily.

Members of this family share a common protein fold and have diverse functions, such as cell adhesion, cell-cell signalling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response.

The encoded type 2 transmembrane protein may play a role in inflammatory and immune response.

Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene.
