CD14 Mouse Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: MEM-15]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	MEM-15
Applications	FC
Recommend Dilution	Flow Cytometry analysis of human blood cells using 10 µl reagent / 100 µl of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.
Reactivity	Human, Primate
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	A crude mixture of human urinary proteins precipitated by ammonium sulphate from the urine of a patient suffering from proteinuria
Specificity	This antibody reacts with CD14, a 53-55 kDa GPI (glycosylphosphatidylinositol)-linked membrane glycoprotein expressed on monocytes, macrophages and weakly on granulocytes; also expressed by most tissue macrophages. The antibody also reacts with soluble forms of CD14 found in serum and in the urine of some nephrotic patients.
Formulation	Phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution containing 15mM sodium azide Label: APC State: Liquid Ig fraction Label: Conjugated with cross-linked Allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions. The conjugate is purified by size-exclusion chromatography and adjusted for direct use.
Conjugation	APC
Storage Condition	Store the antibody at 2 - 8 °C. DO NOT FREEZE! This product is photosensitive and should be protected from light.
Gene Name	CD14 molecule
Database Link	Entrez Gene 929 Human UniProt ID P08571
Background	CD14 is a 55 kDa GPI-anchored glycoprotein, constitutively expressed on the surface of mature monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils, where serves as a multifunctional lipopolysaccharide receptor; it is also released to the serum both as a secreted and enzymatically cleaved GPI-anchored form. CD14 binds lipopolysaccharide molecule in a reaction catalyzed by lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP), an acute phase serum protein. The soluble sCD14 is able to discriminate slight structural differences between lipopolysaccharides and is important for neutralization of serum allochthonous lipopolysaccharides by reconstituted lipoprotein particles. CD14 affects allergic, inflammatory and infectious processes.
Synonyms	CD14
