Mouse Tetranectin/CLEC3B Gene ORF cDNA clone expression plasmid,without any tag

Tetranectin (TN), also known as C-type lectin domain family 3, member B (CLEC3B) is a member of the C-type lectin Family. It is plasminogen kringle 4 binding protein and regulates fibrinolysis and proteolytic processes via binding to plasminogen. Tetranectin has been suggested to play a role in tissue remodeling, due to its ability to stimulate plasminogen activation and its expression in developing tissues such as developing bone and muscle. Tetranectin enhances plasminogen activation by a tissue-type plasminogen activator so that it has been suggested to play a role in tissue remodeling. Tetranectin may play a role in the wound healing process. Tetranectin may play a role in neurological diseases and may serve as a diagnostic aid in multiple sclerosis (MS). Tetranectin was found significantly under-expressed in both serum and saliva of metastatic oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) compared to primary OSCC. Tetranectin is thought to enhance proteolytic processes enabling tumor cells to invade and metastasize.
