[5][6] This gene encodes a member of the CD2 family of cell surface proteins involved in lymphocyte activation.

These proteins are characterized by Ig domains.

This protein is expressed in lymphoid tissues, and studies of a similar protein in mouse suggest that it may function during B cell lineage commitment.
