Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 946
Gene name Sialic acid binding Ig like lectin 6
Gene symbol SIGLEC6
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CD327CD33LCD33L1CD33L2CDW327OBBP1
Chromosome 19
Chromosome location 19q13.41
Summary This gene encodes a member of the SIGLEC (sialic acid binding immunoglobulin-like lectin) family of proteins. The encoded transmembrane receptor binds sialyl-TN glycans and leptin. Placental expression of the encoded protein is upregulated in preeclampsia

Protein name Sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectin 6 (Siglec-6) (CD33 antigen-like 1) (CDw327) (Obesity-binding protein 1) (OB-BP1) (CD antigen CD327)
Protein function Putative adhesion molecule that mediates sialic-acid dependent binding to cells. Binds to alpha-2,6-linked sialic acid. The sialic acid recognition site may be masked by cis interactions with sialic acids on the same cell surface.
