Human Siglec-6 / CD327 Protein, Fc Tag

Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 6 (SIGLEC6) is also known as CD antigen CD327, CD33 antigen-like 1 (CD33L or CD33L1), Obesity-binding protein 1 (OB-BP1). SIGLEC6 belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and SIGLEC (sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin) family, which contains two Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains and one Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. SIGLEC6 mediates sialic-acid dependent binding to cells. SIGLEC6 binds to alpha-2,6-linked sialic acid. The sialic acid recognition site may be masked by cis interactions with sialic acids on the same cell surface.
