Preferentially binds to alpha-2,3- and alpha-2,6-linked sialic acid. Also binds disialogangliosides (disialogalactosyl globoside, disialyl lactotetraosylceramide and disialyl GalNAc lactotetraoslylceramide). The sialic acid recognition site may be masked by cis interactions with sialic acids on the same cell surface. In the immune response, may act as an inhibitory receptor upon ligand induced tyrosine phosphorylation by recruiting cytoplasmic phosphatase(s) via their SH2 domain(s) that block signal transduction through dephosphorylation of signaling molecules. Mediates inhibition of natural killer cells cytotoxicity. May play a role in hemopoiesis. Inhibits differentiation of CD34+ cell precursors towards myelomonocytic cell lineage and proliferation of leukemic myeloid cells (in vitro).

Publication Abstract from PubMed The high-resolution crystal structure of the functional N-terminal domain from the extracellular region of the human natural killer cell inhibitory receptor p75/AIRM1 or Siglec-7 has been determined at 1.45 A resolution; it was obtained from a crystal belonging to a primitive monoclinic space group, with unit-cell parameters a = 32.65, b = 49.72, c = 39.79 A, alpha = gamma = 90, beta = 113 degrees. The structure reported here belongs to a different space group than the previously described Siglec-7 structure and was obtained using a bacterial expression system. The structure unveils the fine structural requirements adopted by a natural killer cell inhibitory receptor of the Siglec family in target-cell recognition and binding.
