CLEC5A
Introduction
C-type lectin domain family 5 member A or CLEC5A, also known as C-type lectin superfamily member 5 (CLECSF5) and myeloid DAP12-associating lectin 1 (MDL1) is a C-type lectin that in humans is encoded by the CLEC5A gene.[1][2] It appears to be a member of a significant myeloid lineage activating pathway.
