LocusSupplementaryData =CD33 is a
transmembrane receptor expressed on cells of monocytic/myeloid lineage. It binds sialic acids, therefore is a member of theSIGLEC family oflectin s. The extracellular portion of this receptor contains two immunoglobulin domains (one IgV and one IgC2 domain), placing CD33 within theimmunoglobulin superfamily . The intracellular portion of CD33 containsimmunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif s (ITIMs) that are implicated in inhibition of cellular activity.
