Human lymphocytes interact directly with CD47 through a novel member of the signal regulatory protein (SIRP) family
Two closely related proteins, signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα; SHPS-1/CD172) and SIRPβ, have been described in humans. The existence of a third SIRP protein has been suggested by cDNA sequence only. We show that this third SIRP is a separate gene that is expressed as a protein with unique charact...
