Cloning of a Novel Scavenger Receptor Cysteine-Rich Type I Transmembrane Molecule (M160) Expressed by Human Macrophages
1 Dec 2000
Abstract excerpt
We report the cloning of a novel human type I cell surface Ag mainly expressed by macrophages. The primary structure was established by molecular cloning, which yielded a 4579-bp cDNA sequence encoding a polypeptide chain of 1453 amino acid residues with 16 potential N:-glycosylation sites. We designated this molecule M160. The domain organization features 12 scavenger receptor cysteine-rich domains followed by a...
