Background: LSECtin/CLEC4G
LSECtin is a type II transmembrane lectin that is related to CD23, DC-SIGN and DC-SIGNR. Its extracellular domain contains a Ca++-dependent, C-type lectin-like domain and multiple leucine-rich repeats. LSECtin appears to be a sinusoidal endothelial cell receptor for mannose, fucose and GlcNAc glycans.
