Function
- may play a critical role in desensitizing TLR signaling through inhibition of Toll-like receptor-mediated NF-kappa-B activation & cytokine production
- interacts (via LRR repeats) with TLR2, TLR3, TLR4, TLR9 & probably other Toll-like receptors
Structure
contains 21 LRR repeats (leucine-rich repeats)
Compartment
- cell membrane
- single-pass type 1 membrane protein
Expression
- ubiquitous,
- high level of expression found in bone marrow, thymus, liver, lung, intestine & spleen
