Cd200r1
Function
Inhibitory receptor for the CD200/OX2 cell surface glycoprotein. Limits inflammation by inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory molecules including TNF-alpha, interferons, and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in response to selected stimuli.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the CD200R family.
Tissue Specificity
Expressed in granulocytes, monocytes, most T-cells and a subset of NK, NKT and B-cells (at protein level). Expressed in the spleen, lung, liver, testis, bone marrow, lymph nodes, spinal cord, kidney, uterus and small intestine. Expressed in mast and dendritic cells. Expressed in the lung of N. brasiliensis-infected mice.
Cellular localization
- Cell membrane
- Single-pass type I membrane protein
