domain:Contains 1 copy of a cytoplasmic motif that is referred to as the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitor motif (ITIM). This motif is involved in modulation of cellular responses. The phosphorylated ITIM motif can bind the SH2 domain of several SH2-containing phosphatases.,function:Putative adhesion molecule that mediates sialic-acid dependent binding to cells. The sialic acid recognition site may be masked by cis interactions with sialic acids on the same cell surface.,online information:Siglec-L1,similarity:Belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. SIGLEC (sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin) family.,similarity:Contains 2 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.,similarity:Contains 2 Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.,tissue specificity:The short isoform is highly expressed in spleen, small intestine and adrenal gland; it is lower expressed in thyroid, placenta, brain, stomach, bone marrow, spinal chord and beast. The long isoform is highly expressed in spleen, small intestine and bone marrow; it is lower expressed in thyroid, placenta, thymus, trachea, stomach, lung, adrenal gland, fetal brain and testis.,
Membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Isoform Short is highly expressed in spleen, small intestine and adrenal gland; it is lower expressed in thyroid, placenta, brain, stomach, bone marrow, spinal cord and breast. Isoform Long is highly expressed in spleen, small intestine and bone marrow; it is lower expressed in thyroid, placenta, thymus, trachea, stomach, lung, adrenal gland, fetal brain and testis.
