CD71 (TFRC) Mouse Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: MEM-75]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	MEM-75
Applications	FC
Recommend Dilution	Flow Cytometry analysis of human blood cells using 20 μl reagent / 100 μl of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension.
Reactivity	Human
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Pre-B cell line NALM-6
Specificity	The antibody reacts with CD71 antigen (transferrin receptor), a 95 kDa type II homodimeric transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on activated B and lymphocytes, macrophages and erythroid precursors; it is lost on resting blood leukocytes. The antibody does not block binding of transferrin to the receptor.
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 purified Ig fraction Label: Conjugated with Fluorescein isothiocyanate under optimum conditions. The reagent is free of unconjugated and adjusted for direct use.
Conjugation	FITC
Storage Condition	Store the antibody at 2 - 8 °C. DO NOT FREEZE! This product is photosensitive and should be protected from light.
Gene Name	transferrin receptor
Database Link	Entrez Gene 7037 Human UniProt ID P02786
Background	CD71 (transferrin receptor) is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein expressed as homodimer in erythroid blood cell line and in activated leukocytes. Upon binding of holotransferrin (complex of transferrin and iron ions), CD71 is internalized by clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Acidification of endosomes by vesicular membrane proton pumps leads to dissociation of iron ions, whereas transferrin (apotransferrin) remains associated with CD71 and recycles to the cell surface, where it is released upon exposure to normal pH. CD71 is also involved in uptake of non-transferrin bound iron.
Synonyms	TfR1, p90, Transferrin receptor protein 1
