EMR2 is a member of the epidermal growth factor-seven transmembrane (EGF-TM7) family of proteins, which is closely related to CD97. EMR2, also known as CD312, is predominantly expressed on myeloid dendritic cells, monocytes and tissue macrophages. Various isoforms of EMR2 have been documented. The ligand for the largest isoform of EMR2 has recently been identified as chrondroitin sulphate, which binds to the fourth EGF-like module of EMR2.Synonyms: EGF-like module EMR2, EGF-like module-containing mucin-like hormone receptor-like 2
