Summary
CLEC12A (C-type lectin domain family 12 member A, HGNC:31713) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 12p13.31, encoding C-type lectin domain family 12 member A (Q5QGZ9). Myeloid inhibitory C-type lectin receptor that acts as a negative regulator of myeloid cell activation.
This gene encodes a member of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. Members of this family share a common protein fold and have diverse functions, such as cell adhesion, cell-cell signaling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The protein encoded by this gene is a negative regulator of granulocyte and monocyte function. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants of this gene have been described, but the full-length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. This gene is closely linked to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members in the natural killer gene complex region on chromosome 12p13.

Function. Myeloid inhibitory C-type lectin receptor that acts as a negative regulator of myeloid cell activation. Myeloid cell inhibition is required to limit proinflammatory pathways and protect against excessive inflammation. Specifically recognizes and binds various structures, such as neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) or monosodium urate crystals. Also acts as a pattern-recognition receptor for pathogen-associated molecules, such as plasmodium hemozoin or mycobacterial micolic acid. Ligand-binding induces phosphorylation of its ITIM motif, followed by recruitment of tyrosine-protein phosphatases PTPN6 and PTPN11, which counteract tyrosine-protein kinase SYK, thereby preventing myeloid cell activation. Acts as a pattern-recognition receptor for NETs in neutrophils: specifically recognizes DNA in NETs, leading to inhibit neutrophil activation and limit further NET formation. This regulation is essential for controlling key neutrophil responses and limit NET-mediated inflammatory conditions. Also recognizes dead cells by acting as a receptor for monosodium urate crystals, leading to down-regulate neutrophil activation. Binding to monosodium urate crystals also promotes the type I interferon response. Acts as an inhibitor of natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity. Also acts as an inhibitor of dendritic cell maturation in an IL10-dependent manner.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer; disulfide-linked. Interacts (when the ITIM motif is phosphorylated) with PTPN6 and PTPN11.
Subcellular location. Cell membrane.
Tissue specificity. Preferentially expressed in lymphoid tissues and immune cells, including natural killer (NK) cells, T-cells, dendritic cells and monocytes or macrophages. Detected in spleen macrophage-rich red pulp and in lymph node (at protein level). Detected in peripheral blood leukocytes, dendritic cells, bone marrow, monocytes, mononuclear leukocytes and macrophages.
Post-translational modifications. Phosphorylated at Tyr-7 by SRC in the ITIM motif following ligand-binding, promoting recruitment of tyrosine-protein phosphatases PTPN6 and PTPN11. Highly N-glycosylated; glycosylation varies between cell types.
Domain organisation. The immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitor motif (ITIM) is involved in modulation of cellular responses. The phosphorylated ITIM motif can bind the SH2 domain of several SH2-containing protein phosphatases, such as PTPN6 and PTPN11.
Induction. Down-regulated in activated leukocytes recruited to a site of inflammation.
Miscellaneous. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.
