CLEC4E (C-type lectin domain family 4, member E), also called as Mincle, is a type II transmembrane C-type lectin receptor that specifically binds to the cord factor TDM (trehalose-6,6?-dimycolate), a unique glycolipid of mycobacterial cell-surface components, and activates immune cells to confer adjuvant activity. Members of this family share a common protein fold and have diverse functions, such as cell adhesion, cell-cell signaling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. CLEC4E is mainly expressed in myeloid cells, such as macrophages and neutrophils and possesses a single carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD) in the extracellular region. It is associated with FcRgamma chain, an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-containing adaptor, and acts as an activating receptor that senses damaged cells. CLEC4E is also a downstream target of CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP), beta (CEBPbeta) and may play a role in inflammation.
