LY75
Annotation rationales
LY75 (DEC-205) is a DC uptake receptor; its expression in T cells implies specialization for prolonged synapse formation and antigen scavenging in secondary lymphoid tissue.
Functional implications
Form extended synapses with DCs to maintain antigen exposure and refine affinity during memory maintenance.
