GlycoErase™ SIGLEC12 Knockout HepG2 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0825-JF860)

Description	GlycoErase™ SIGLEC12 knockout HepG2 cell line is a human hepatocellular carcinoma cell line lacking SIGLEC12 expression. SIGLEC12, part of the SIGLEC3-like subfamily, contains ITIM and SLAM-like motifs and recruits SHP1/2 phosphatases to inhibit macrophage signaling. The knockout HepG2 system provides a functional model for dissecting inhibitory receptor biology, phosphatase-mediated pathways, and immune regulation in a liver-derived context, with applications in oncology, hepatology, and therapeutic development.

Target	SIGLEC12
Full Name	Sialic Acid Binding Ig Like Lectin 12
Alternative Name	S2V, SLG, SIGLECL1, Siglec-XII, Sialic Acid Binding Ig Like Lectin
Location	19q13.41
Gene ID	89858
Summary	This gene encodes a member of the SIGLEC3-like subfamily, characterized by an extracellular V-set immunoglobulin-like domain followed by two C2-set domains, and cytoplasmic motifs ITIM and SLAM-like. Upon tyrosine phosphorylation, the protein recruits SHP1 and SHP2, and functions as an inhibitory receptor to negatively regulate macrophage signaling. This gene is clustered with other SIGLEC3-like genes on 19q13.4, and alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
