Function |
Modulates B-cell activation responses. Signaling could be triggered by the binding of a lectin-like ligand to the CD24 carbohydrates, and transduced by the release of second messengers derived from the GPI-anchor. Promotes AG-dependent proliferation of B-cells, and prevents their terminal differentiation into antibody-forming cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11313396}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane; Lipid-anchor, GPI-anchor.
|
Tissue Specificity |
B-cells. Expressed in a number of B-cell lines including P32/ISH and Namalwa. Expressed in erythroleukemia cell and small cell lung carcinoma cell lines. Also expressed on the surface of T-cells. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14657362, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8753773}.
