MeSH definition : A sialic acid binding lectin that was originally identified as an adhesion molecule
for inflammatory MACROPHAGES and activated MONOCYTES. This protein is the largest
known siglec subtype and contains 16 immunoglobulin C2-set domains. It plays a role
in cell to cell interactions and interactions with BACTERIA.;
