Function
FBCD1_HUMAN Acetyl group-binding receptor which shows a high-affinity and calcium-dependent binding to acetylated structures such as chitin, some N-acetylated carbohydrates, and amino acids, but not to their non-acetylated counterparts. Can facilitate the endocytosis of acetylated components.[1] [2]
