LOC105369261 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: MEM-59]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	MEM-59
Applications	FC, IHC, WB
Recommend Dilution	Flow Cytometry analysis of human blood cells using 20 µl reagent / 100 µl of whole blood or 10e6 cells in a suspension.
Reactivity	Human
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Human T lymphocytes
Specificity	This antibody recognizes neuraminidase-sensitive epitope on CD43 (Leukosialin), a 95-135 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein (mucin-type) which is involved in lymphocyte activation. CD43 is expressed by platelets and at high levels on the surface of all leukocytes; it is negative on resting B lymphocytes and erythrocytes.
Formulation	Phosphate buffered saline (PBS) containing 15 mM sodium azide and 0.2% (w/v) high-grade protease free Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a stabilizing agent Label: FITC State: Liquid Ig fraction Label: Fluorescein isothiocyanate
Conjugation	FITC
Storage Condition	Store the antibody at 2 - 8 °C. DO NOT FREEZE! This product is photosensitive and should be protected from light.
Database Link	Entrez Gene 105369261 Human UniProt ID P16150
Background	CD43 (leukosialin, sialophorin) is a transmembrane mucin-like protein with high negative charge, expressed on the surface of most hematopoietic cells. CD43 contributes to a repulsive barrier that interferes with cellular adhesion, however, in certain cases also promotes leukocyte aggregation. By interaction with actin-binding proteins ezrin and moesin CD43 plays a regulatory role in remodeling T-cell morphology and regulates cell-cell interactions during lymphocyte traffic. CD43 signaling both enhances LFA-1 adhesiveness and counteracts LFA-1 induction via other receptors. Expression of CD43 causes induction of functionally active tumour suppressor p53 protein, but in case of p53 and ARF defficiency CD43 promotes tumour proliferation and viability. It appears to be an important modulator of leukocyte functions.
Synonyms	Leukocyte sialoglycoprotein, Sialophorin, Galactoglycoprotein, SPN
