EGF-like module-containing mucin-like hormone receptor-like 3 (EGF-like module-containing mucin-like receptor EMR3, EMR3)
Function:
1) receptor probably involved in myeloid interactions during immune & inflammatory responses
2) ligand for soluble form of this receptor is present on surface of momocyte-derived macrophages & activated neutrophils
Structure:
- proteolytically cleaved into 2 subunits, an extracellular alpha subunit and a seven-transmembrane subunit
- forms a heterodimer, consisting of large extracellular region (alpha subunit) non-covalently linked to a seven-transmembrane moiety (beta subunit)
- belongs to the G-protein coupled receptor 2 family, LN-TM7 subfamily
- contains 2 EGF-like domains
- contains 1 GPS domain
Compartment:
- cell membrane
- subunit alpha may be secreted
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3
Expression:
- predominantly leukocyte-restricted expression
- highest levels in neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages
