Mrc1 Rat Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: MR5D3]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	MR5D3
Applications	FC
Recommend Dilution	Flow Cytometry: Use 10 µl of neat CD206 antibody to label 106 cells in 100 µl. CD206 is expressed weakly at the cell surface. Staining may be increased following membrane permeabilisation.
Reactivity	Mouse
Host	Rat
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Chimaeric CRD4-7-Fc protein. Spleen cells from immunised Fischer rats were fused with cells of the Y3 myeloma cell line.
Specificity	This antibody recognises the mannose receptor, a 175kD type 1 membrane protein that is also known as CD206. Clone MR5D3 has been reported to be non-inhibitory for the binding of the mannose receptor to carbohydrate ligands.

Background	CD206, also known as macrophage mannose receptor type C (MMR or MRC1), is a type I membrane receptor protein. CD206 is a phagocytic and endocytic receptor that can recognize carbohydrate ligands in target molecules. The extracellular portion of the protein includes eight C-type carbohydrate recognition domains (CRD) which are clustered together to achieve higher affinity binding to saccharides. CD206 is found on macrophages and on endothelial cells of the liver and is the only known example of a C-type lectin that contains multiple C-type CRDs. CD206 mediates the endocytosis of glycoproteins by macrophages and binds high-mannose structures on the surface of potentially pathogenic viruses, fungi and bacteria enabling them to be neutralized by phagocytic engulfment. During inflammation, CD206 is crucial for rapid clearance of several mannose-bearing serum glycoproteins but does not regulate the initiation of inflammation. CD206 is primarily expressed in mature tissue macrophages and immature Dendritic cells, as well as hepatic and lymphatic endothelial cells, retinal pigmental epithelium (RPE) and mesangial cells.
Synonyms	Macrophage mannose receptor, CLEC13D, CLEC13DL, MRC1L1
