Leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptors
The stem symbol LILR# was approved for this gene family in 2000. These genes have a number of literature synonyms, which are based around three stem symbols: LIR#, ILT# and MIR# (for "leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors", "immunoglobulin-like transcripts" and "monocyte/macrophage Ig-related receptors"). Based on sequence homology two subfamilies have now been defined: subfamily A, for the activating receptors (TM domain); subfamily B for inhibitory (or brake) receptors (TM and ITIM domains).
