anti-CD2 antibody [OX-34]
anti-CD2 antibody [OX-34] for IHC-Frozen sections,Flow cytometry,ICC/IF,Immunoprecipitation,IHC-Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections and Rat
Overview
| Product Description | Mouse Monoclonal antibody [OX-34] recognizes CD2 Mouse anti Rat CD2 antibody, clone OX-34 recognizes a determinant on thymocytes and peripheral T-cells but it does not bind to B cells or peritoneal macrophages. The antigen recognized by this antibody is a 50-54 kDa glycoprotein, homolog of the human CD2 antigen (Williams et al. 1987). |

| Gene Full Name | Cd2 molecule |
| Background | CD2 is a surface antigen of the human T-lymphocyte lineage that is expressed on all peripheral blood T cells (summarized by Sewell et al., 1986 [PubMed 3490670]). It is one of the earliest T-cell markers, being present on more than 95% of thymocytes; it is also found on some natural killer cells but not on B lymphocytes. Monoclonal antibodies directed against CD2 inhibit the formation of rosettes with sheep erythrocytes, indicating that CD2 is the erythrocyte receptor or is closely associated with it.[supplied by OMIM, Jul 2010] |
| Function | CD2 interacts with lymphocyte function-associated antigen (LFA-3) and CD48/BCM1 to mediate adhesion between T-cells and other cell types. CD2 is implicated in the triggering of T-cells, the cytoplasmic domain is implicated in the signaling function. [UniProt] |
