Protein name Ficolin-2 (37 kDa elastin-binding protein) (Collagen/fibrinogen domain-containing protein 2) (EBP-37) (Ficolin-B) (Ficolin-beta) (Hucolin) (L-ficolin) (Serum lectin p35)
Protein function May function in innate immunity through activation of the lectin complement pathway. Calcium-dependent and GlcNAc-binding lectin. Enhances phagocytosis of S.typhimurium by neutrophils, suggesting an opsonic effect via the collagen region. {ECO:0
