basic FUNCTION	playing an important role in innate immunity by binding to specific carbohydrate structures found at the surface of pathogenic microorganisms
	plays important roles in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) recognition
	plays diverse and important roles in innate immunity and pulmonary homeostasis (Crouch 2010)

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

inflammation

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	interacting with decorin, a SFTPD-binding protein (decorin core protein binds the collagen-like region of the SFTPD)
	binds the extracellular domains of TLR2 and TLR4 through its CRD by a mechanism different from its binding to PI and LPS
	putative binding motif for OSCAR within the SFTPD collagenous domain, and interaction is a potential therapeutic target in chronic inflammatory diseases of the lung as well as other diseases involving tissue accumulation of SFTPD, infiltration of inflammatory monocytes

ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

Sftpd mutant lacking N-terminal cysteine residues and truncation mutants lacking the N-terminal domains were resistant to the oxidant-induced alterations in disulfide bonding (Crouch 2010)
