CD43 antibody (PE)

Catalog No. ABIN1106376

Product Details anti-CD43 Antibody (PE)

Target: CD43 (SPN) (Sialophorin (SPN))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD43 antibody is conjugated to PE

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunofluorescence (IF)

Specificity: Clone MT1, specific for CD43, produces mouse IgG1 immunoglobulins reactive with a 95-115 kDa highly sialated glycoprotein. Clone MT1 antibody is used to identify B cell lines and myeloma cells. It may be used in the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemias (CLL), as an alternative to CD5. The antigen detected by MT1 is the only marker expressed on neoplasms of the very early precursor cells. In immunohistochemistry it reacts with T cells, macrophages, myeloid cells and B cells (weak). It is used for the typing of lymphomas in paraffin sections [3-5].

Purification: Affinity chromatography

Clone: MT1

Target: CD43 (SPN) (Sialophorin (SPN))

Alternative Name: CD43 / Leukosialin (SPN Products)

Background: CD43 antigen is expressed on all T cells, NK cells, myeloid cells and monocytes as well as on CD5 positive mature B cells. It is also present on all immature hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow [1]. The antigen is deficient in patients with Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. A soluble form of CD43 is present in human serum [2]. CD43 may function as an adhesion molecule via interaction with CD54 although this has not been definitely established. It may also inhibit leucocyte interactions with other cells [6]. The antigen is involved in the activation of T-cells, B cells, NK cells and monocytes [5]. The membrane proximal portion of the cytoplasmic domain mediates an association with the cytoskeleton [1].Synonyms: Galactoglycoprotein, Leukocyte sialoglycoprotein, SPN, Sialophorin
