MeSH Heading: Sialic Acid Binding Immunoglobulin-like Lectins
Tree Number(s): D12.776.503.921
Unique ID: D063265
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D063265
Scope Note: A family of SIALIC ACID binding proteins found in vertebrate species. They are transmembrane proteins which act as cell surface receptors for a variety of sialylated GLYCOCONJUGATES. While a subset of siglec protein subtypes are evolutionarily conserved between mammalian species, there are many others that are species specific.
Entry Term(s): Sialic Acid Binding Ig-like Lectin; Sialic Acid-binding Hemagglutinin; Siglec; Siglecs
