Overview

Product Description Mouse Monoclonal antibody [BRIC5] recognizes CD58
Mouse anti Human CD58 antibody, clone BRIC5 recognizes human Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3, also known as CD58 or LFA-3. CD58 is a 250 amino acid single pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein, a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, with a predicted molecular mass of 28.1 kDa and an apparent molecular mass of ~55-70 kDa. CD58 occurs in two forms, one transmembrane with a cytoplasmic domain, the other form anchored in the membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol tail. The complete amino acid sequence of both forms has been deduced from cDNA and is heavily N-glycosylated. CD58 is a cell adhesion molecule which plays a critical role in facilitation of antigen specific recognition through interaction with CD2 on T lymphocytes (Makgoba et al. 1989).CD58 has a wide tissue distribution, being present on erythrocytes, platelets, monocytes, a subset of lymphocytes, bone marrow cells, epithelium and endothelial cells. There are approximately 5,000 CD58 molecules on each erythrocyte. There is reduced expression of CD58 on haemopoietic cells in individuals with paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria.Mouse anti Human CD58 antibody, clone BRIC5 was produced in response to erythrocytes. The functional affinity of BRIC5 binding to erythrocytes is 4 x 108 M-1. It reacts by immunoblotting to non-reduced erythrocyte membranes. BRIC5 is an indirect haemagglutinin. The antigen on erythrocytes is pronase sensitive. BRIC5 inhibits T cell rosetting.

GeneID: 965 Human CD58

Swiss-port # P19256 Human Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3

Gene Symbol CD58
Gene Full Name CD58 molecule
Background This gene encodes a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is a ligand of the T lymphocyte CD2 protein, and functions in adhesion and activation of T lymphocytes. The protein is localized to the plasma membrane. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2009]
Function Ligand of the T-lymphocyte CD2 glycoprotein. This interaction is important in mediating thymocyte interactions with thymic epithelial cells, antigen-independent and -dependent interactions of T-lymphocytes with target cells and antigen-presenting cells and the T-lymphocyte rosetting with erythrocytes. In addition, the LFA-3/CD2 interaction may prime response by both the CD2+ and LFA-3+ cells. [UniProt]
