function:Acts as an endocytic receptor to direct captured antigens from the extracellular space to a specialized antigen-processing compartment (By similarity). Causes reduced proliferation of B-lymphocytes.,miscellaneous:Isoform 2 and isoform 3 are produced in HRS cells by a transcriptional control mechanism which cotranscribe an mRNA containing LY75 and CD302 prior to generating the intergenically spliced mRNA to produce LY75/CD302 fusion proteins.,online information:DEC-205,PTM:N-glycosylated.,similarity:Contains 1 C-type lectin domain.,similarity:Contains 1 fibronectin type-II domain.,similarity:Contains 1 ricin B-type lectin domain.,similarity:Contains 10 C-type lectin domains.,tissue specificity:Expressed in myeloid and B lymphoid cell lines. Isoform 2 and isoform 3 are expressed in malignant Hodgkin's lymphoma cells called Hodgkin's and Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells.,tissue specificity:Expressed in spleen, thymus, colon and peripheral blood lymphocytes. Detected in myeloid and B lymphoid cell lines. Isoform 2 and isoform 3 are expressed in malignant Hodgkin's lymphoma cells called Hodgkin's and Reed-Sternberg (HRS) cells.,
