Background
Osteoclasts are multinucleated cells that resorb bone and are essential for bone homeostasis. This gene encodes an osteoclast-associated receptor (OSCAR), which is a member of the leukocyte receptor complex protein family that plays critical roles in the regulation of both innate and adaptive immune responses. The encoded protein may play a role in oxidative stress-mediated atherogenesis as well as monocyte adhesion. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013],
Function
caution:The sequence shown here is derived from an Ensembl automatic analysis pipeline and should be considered as preliminary data.,function:Regulator of osteoclastogenesis which plays an important bone-specific function in osteoclast differentiation.,similarity:Belongs to the leukocyte receptor complex/polymeric immunogobulin receptor (PIR/LRC) family.,similarity:Contains 2 Ig-like (immunoglobulin-like) domains.,
