Function:Mediates the endocytosis of glycoproteins by macrophages. Binds both sulfated and non-sulfated polysaccharide chains. Acts as phagocytic receptor for bacteria, fungi and other pathogens.,miscellaneous:CRDs 1-3 have at most very weak affinity for carbohydrate. CRD 4 shows the highest affinity binding and has multispecificity for a variety of monosaccharides. At least 3 CRDs (4, 5, and 7) are required for high affinity binding and endocytosis of multivalent glycoconjugates.,online information:Macrophage mannose receptor,similarity:Contains 1 fibronectin type-II domain.,similarity:Contains 1 ricin B-type lectin domain.,similarity:Contains 8 C-type lectin domains.,
