UniProt data
UniProt name: CD33_HUMAN (P20138)
Gene name: CD33; Synonyms=SIGLEC3
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Putative adhesion molecule of myelomonocytic-derived cells that mediates sialic-acid dependent binding to cells. Preferentially 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. In the immune response, may act as an inhibitory receptor upon ligand induced tyrosine phosphorylation by recruiting cytoplasmic phosphatase(s) via their SH2 domain(s) that block signal transduction through dephosphorylation of signaling molecules. Induces apoptosis in acute myeloid leukemia (in vitro). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10556798, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11320212}.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein.
Transmembrane domains:
- 260-282, 23 AA, Helical. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 364 AA
