The encoded protein belongs to the subfamily B class of LIR receptors which contain two or four extracellular immunoglobulin domains, a transmembrane domain, and two to four cytoplasmic immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs).

The receptor is expressed on monocytic cells and transduces a negative signal that inhibits stimulation of an immune response.

It has been shown to express on tumor-associated macrophages and negatively regulate immune response in tumor.
