LILRC2 (leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor C2) is a 35 kDa member of a family of inhibitory and stimulatory receptors (LILRs) that are expressed on hematopoietic cells. Mature rat LILRC2 is a type I transmembrane (TM) protein that is 241 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains a 207 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 19 aa TM segment, and a short cytoplasmic tail. The ECD contains two Ig-like domains while the TM segment possesses an Arg residue. This suggests that LILRC2 is an activating receptor that may interact with Fc epsilon RI gamma and/or CD3 zeta . Cells expressing LILRC2 include neutrophils, B cells, and CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. No human or mouse LILRC2 is known.
