anti-CD43 antibody [W3/13] (FITC)

anti-CD43 antibody [W3/13] (FITC) for Flow cytometry and Rat

Overview

Product Description FITC-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal antibody [W3/13] recognizes CD43
Mouse anti Rat CD43 antibody, clone W3/13 recognizes the rat CD43 cell surface antigen, also known as leukosialin, sialophorin or W3/13 antigen. CD43 is a 371 amino acid ~95 kDa heavily glycosylated single pass type 1 transmebrane glycoprotein (Killeen et al. 1987) expressed by all leucocytes with the exception of B lymphocytes. CD43, in mice acts as a T-cell counter-receptor for CD169 (Siglec-1) suggesting a role in cell-cell interactions (van den Berg et al. 2001)Mouse anti Rat CD43 antibody, clone W3/13 is routinely tested in flow cytometry on rat splenocytes.

Bioinformation

Gene Symbol Spn
Gene Full Name sialophorin
Background The protein encoded by this gene is a major sialoglycoprotein found on the surface of thymocytes, T lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, and some B lymphocytes. It may be part of a physiologic ligand-receptor complex involved in T-cell activation. During T-cell activation, this protein is actively removed from the T-cell-APC (antigen-presenting cell) contact site, suggesting a negative regulatory role in adaptive immune response. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
Function One of the major glycoproteins of thymocytes and T lymphocytes. Plays a role in the physicochemical properties of the T-cell surface and in lectin binding. Presents carbohydrate ligands to selectins. Has an extended rodlike structure that could protrude above the glycocalyx of the cell and allow multiple glycan chains to be accessible for binding. Is a counter-receptor for SN/Siglec-1 (By similarity). During T-cell activation is actively removed from the T-cell-APC (antigen-presenting cell) contact site thus suggesting a negative regulatory role in adaptive immune response (By similarity).

Calculated MW 40 kDa
