Gene: CD163L1

Alternate names for this Gene: CD163B|M160|SCARI2|WC1

Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich (SRCR) superfamily. Members of this family are secreted or membrane-anchored proteins mainly found in cells associated with the immune system. The SRCR family is defined by a 100-110 amino acid SRCR domain, which may mediate protein-protein interaction and ligand binding. The encoded protein contains twelve SRCR domains, a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic domain. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 12

Location in Chromosome : 12p13.31
