Background: SIRP alpha/CD172a
SIRP alpha (Signal regulatory protein alpha; also SHPS1 and BIT) is a variably glycosylated 90-120 kDa member of the SIRP family of proteins. It is widely expressed, being found on neurons, microglia/macrophages, endothelium, and fibroblasts. SIRP alpha has a variety of functions, including presynsptic organization, inhibition of integrin action, and induction of myogenesis. It binds to CD47 and likely other ligands. Mature human SIRP alpha is a 477 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane glycoprotein. It contains an extracellular region (aa 27-372) that shows one V-type Ig-like (aa 32-137) and two C2-type Ig-like domains (aa 147-347). Its cytoplasmic domain possesses two ITIMs which interact with protein tyrosine phosphatases. There is one alternative start site at Met102 plus a four aa insertion after Gln421. Over aa 27-370, human SIRP alpha shares 61% aa identity with mouse SIRP alpha.
