GeneID: 962 Human CD48

Swiss-port # P09326 Human CD48 antigen

Gene Symbol CD48
Gene Full Name CD48 molecule
Background CD48 (Blast-1) belongs to the CD2 subset of the Ig superfamily, which includes CD2, CD2F-10, CD58, CD84, CD150, CD229, CD244 and others. These molecules bind to the same or another members of their family, thus mediate homotypic or heterotypic adhesion. CD48 is a GPI-anchored protein broadly expressed on hematopoietic cells and serves as a high affinity ligand for 2B4 and low affinity ligand for CD2. 2B4-CD48 interaction among NK cells and NK-T cells regulates cell proliferation. Signaling through CD48 results in eosinophil activation and CD48 expression is increased in several infectious diseases.
Function Ligand for CD2. Might facilitate interaction between activated lymphocytes. Probably involved in regulating T-cell activation. [UniProt]
Research Area Immune System antibody
Calculated MW 28 kDa
