The Siglecs are a subfamily of I-type lectins
(immunoglobulin superfamily proteins that bind sugars) that
specifically recognize sialic acids. We report the cloning and
characterization of human Siglec-9. The cDNA encodes a type 1 transmembrane protein with three extracellular immunoglobulin-like
domains and a cytosolic tail containing two tyrosines, one within a
typical immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM). The
N-terminal V-set Ig domain has most amino acid residues typical of
Siglecs. Siglec-9 is expressed on granulocytes and monocytes.
Expression of the full-length cDNA in COS cells induces sialic-acid
dependent erythrocyte binding. A recombinant soluble form of the
extracellular domain binds to 2-3 and 2-6-linked sialic acids.
Typical of Siglecs, the carboxyl group and side chain of sialic acid
are essential for recognition, and mutation of a critical arginine
residue in domain 1 abrogates binding. The underlying glycan structure
also affects binding, with Gal 1-4Glc[NAc] being preferred.
Siglec-9 shows closest homology to Siglec-7 and both belong to a
Siglec-3/CD33-related subset of Siglecs (with Siglecs-5, -6, and -8).
The Siglec-9 gene is on chromosome 19q13.3-13.4, in a cluster with all
Siglec-3/CD33-related Siglec genes, suggesting their origin by gene
duplications. A homology search of the Drosophila
melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans genomes
suggests that Siglec expression may be limited to animals of
deuterostome lineage, coincident with the appearance of the genes of
the sialic acid biosynthetic pathway.
