anti-CD161 antibody [B199.2] (FITC)
anti-CD161 antibody [B199.2] (FITC) for Flow cytometry and Human
Overview
| Product Description | FITC-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal antibody [B199.2] recognizes CD161 Mouse anti Human CD161 antibody, clone B199.2 recognizes the human Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1, also known as CD161, C-type lectin domain family 5 member B, HNKR-P1a, NKR-P1A or Natural killer cell surface protein P1A. CD161 is a 225 amino acid ~25 kDa predicted molecular mass, single pass type II transmembrane glycoprotein with a single C-type lectin domain. CD161 is expressed by almost all NK cells and a subset of CD3+ve T cells (Lanier 1994).CD161, a member of the C-lectin is expressed as a disulphide bond-linked homodimeric cell surface protein, comprising two chains of ~40-44 kDa (Lanier et al. 1994). CD161 acts as a receptor for another c-type lectin, LLT1 with roles in the regulation of NK cell and T cell function (Aldemir et al. 2005).Mouse anti Human CD161 antibody, clone B199.2 cross-competes with and recognizes a similar epitope to the DX1 monoclonal antibody (Lanier et al. 1994). |

Swiss-port # Q12918 Human Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1 |
|---|---|
| Gene Symbol | KLRB1 |
| Gene Full Name | killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B, member 1 |
| Background | Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes that mediate cytotoxicity and secrete cytokines after immune stimulation. Several genes of the C-type lectin superfamily, including the rodent NKRP1 family of glycoproteins, are expressed by NK cells and may be involved in the regulation of NK cell function. The KLRB1 protein contains an extracellular domain with several motifs characteristic of C-type lectins, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. The KLRB1 protein is classified as a type II membrane protein because it has an external C terminus. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
| Function | Plays an inhibitory role on natural killer (NK) cells cytotoxicity. Activation results in specific acid sphingomyelinase/SMPD1 stimulation with subsequent marked elevation of intracellular ceramide. Activation also leads to AKT1/PKB and RPS6KA1/RSK1 kinases stimulation as well as markedly enhanced T-cell proliferation induced by anti-CD3. Acts as a lectin that binds to the terminal carbohydrate Gal-alpha(1,3)Gal epitope as well as to the N-acetyllactosamine epitope. Binds also to CLEC2D/LLT1 as a ligand and inhibits NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity as well as interferon-gamma secretion in target cells. [UniProt] |
