function:Acts as a receptor for the platelet-aggregating snake venom protein rhodocytin. Rhodocytin binding leads to tyrosine phosphorylation and this promotes the binding of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk) and initiation of downstream tyrosine phosphorylation events and activation of PLC-gamma-2. Acts as an attachment factor for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and facilitates its capture by platelets.,online information:CLEC-2,PTM:Glycosylated.,PTM:Phosphorylated on tyrosine residue in response to rhodocytin binding.,similarity:Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.,subunit:Monomer.,tissue specificity:Expressed preferentially in the liver. Also expressed in immune cells of myeloid origin and on the surface of platelets.,
