Scope note: Proteínas transmembrana que contienen un dominio de tipo lectina, un dominio tipo factor de crecimiento epidérmico y un número variable de dominios homólogos a proteínas reguladoras del complemento. Son importantes moléculas de adhesión que favorecen la adherencia de los LEUCOCITOS al ENDOTELIO VASCULAR.
