anti-CLEC7A antibody [2A11] (Biotin)

anti-CLEC7A antibody [2A11] (Biotin) for Flow cytometry and Mouse

Overview

Product Description Biotin-conjugated Rat Monoclonal antibody [2A11] recognizes CLEC7A
This antibody recognizes murine beta-glucan receptor, also known as Dectin-1.Dectin-1 is predominantly expressed by cells of the monocyte/macrophage and neutrophil lineages, but also at lower levels by dendritic cells and a subpopulation of T cells.As a major leucocyte receptor for beta-glucan this molecule may have a key role in the immunomodulatory effects of beta-glucans and in the host response to fungal pathogens. Dectin-1 may stimulate reactive oxygen production in macropahges via the protein tyrosine kinase known as Syk. Rat anti Mouse Dectin-1 antibody, clone 2A11 inhibits the binding of zymosan to macrophages via the beta-glucan receptor.

GeneID: 56644 Mouse CLEC7A

Swiss-port # Q6QLQ4 Mouse C-type lectin domain family 7 member A

Gene Symbol Clec7a
Gene Full Name C-type lectin domain family 7, member a
Background This gene encodes a member of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. The encoded glycoprotein is a small type II membrane receptor with an extracellular C-type lectin-like domain fold and a cytoplasmic domain with an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif. It functions as a pattern-recognition receptor that recognizes a variety of beta-1,3-linked and beta-1,6-linked glucans from fungi and plants, and in this way plays a role in innate immune response. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. This gene is closely linked to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members on chromosome 12p13 in the natural killer gene complex region. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Function Lectin that functions as pattern receptor specific for beta-1,3-linked and beta-1,6-linked glucans, such as cell wall constituents from pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Necessary for the TLR2-mediated inflammatory response and for TLR2-mediated activation of NF-kappa-B. Enhances cytokine production in macrophages and dendritic cells. Mediates production of reactive oxygen species in the cell. Mediates phagocytosis of C.albicans conidia. Binds T-cells in a way that does not involve their surface glycans and plays a role in T-cell activation. Stimulates T-cell proliferation (By similarity). [UniProt]
Calculated MW 28 kDa
PTM Phosphorylated on tyrosine residues in response to glucan binding.
