Type  function Description  Cell surface glycoprotein that participates in iron homeostasis in the liver, the kidney, the retina and oligodendrocytes by acting as a receptor of H-ferritin (PubMed:16203866, PubMed:33065090). Mechanistically, mediates iron-containing ferritin uptake via an endocytic pathway, trafficking to endosomes and subsequently to lysosomes (PubMed:16043519, PubMed:21886823). Plays also an important role in the regulation of Th2 immunity (PubMed:16043519). Receptor for SEMA4A involved in the regulation of T-cell function, enhancing T-cell activation (PubMed:12374982).
