MGI Phenotype FUNCTION: [Summary is not available for the mouse gene. This summary is for the human ortholog.] This gene encodes a large, transmembrane receptor protein which may function in angiogenesis, lymphocyte homing, cell adhesion, or receptor scavenging. The protein contains 7 fasciclin, 15 epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like, and 2 laminin-type EGF-like domains as well as a C-type lectin-like hyaluronan-binding Link module. The protein is primarily expressed on sinusoidal endothelial cells of liver, spleen, and lymph node. The receptor has been shown to bind and endocytose ligands such as hyaluronan, low density lipoprotein, Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and advanced glycosylation end products. Supporting its possible role as a scavenger receptor, the protein has been shown to cycle between the plasma membrane and lysosomes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for knock-out alleles exhibit no gross abnormaities. Mice homozygous for one null allele display elevated serum hyaluronic acid levels and decreased metastasis. [provided by MGI curators]

Nature of Mutation
DNA sequencing using the SOLiD technique identified a C to T transition at position 6594 of the Stab2 transcript in exon 60 of 69 total exons.  Three transcripts of the Stab2 gene are displayed on Ensembl. The mutated nucleotide causes a proline to leucine substitution at amino acid 2178 of the encoded protein. The mutation has been confirmed by DNA sequencing using the Sanger method (Figure 1). 
 
Protein Function and Prediction
The Stab2gene encodes a 2559 amino acid single-pass transmembrane protein known as stabilin-2. Stabilin-2 is a phosphatidylserine receptor that enhances the engulfment of apoptotic cells. It is also a hyaluronan receptor that binds to and mediates endocytosis of hyaluronic acid (HA). In different species, stabilin-2 can act as a primary systemic scavenger receptor for heparin (Hep), chondroitin sulfate (CS), dermatan sulfate (DS), nonglycosaminoglycan (GAG), acetylated low-density lipoprotein (AcLDL), pro-collagen propeptides and advanced glycation end products (AGE). The protein is also implicated in maintaining tissue integrity and plays an important role in lymphocyte recruitment in the hepatic vasculature. Stabilin-2 binds to bacteria and may play a role in defense against bacterial infection. The short form of the protein is an endocytosis receptor for heparin internalization as well as HA and CS. Stabilin-2 contains 17 EGF-like domains, seven FAS1 domains, two laminin EGF-like domains and one HA-binding Link domain  (Uniprot Q8R4U0).
 
The P2178L change is located between the seventeenth EGF-like domain and the Link domain in the extracellular region of the protein, and is predicted to be probably damaging by the PolyPhen program.
