CD46 antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN94152

Product Details anti-CD46 Antibody (FITC)

Target: CD46

Reactivity: Human, Cow

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD46 antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The antibody MEM-258 recognizes an extracellular epitope on SCR4 (the membrane-proximal SCR) domain of CD46 (Membrane cofactor protein). CD46 is 56-66 kDa dimeric transmembrane protein expressed on T and B lymphocytes, platelets, monocytes, granulocytes, endothelial cells, epithelial cells and fibroblast, it is negative on erythrocytes.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human, Bovine

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: HPB-ALL human T cell line

Clone: MEM-258

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 20 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (2 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Comment:

Target Details for CD46

Target: CD46

Alternative Name: CD46 (CD46 Products)

Background: CD46 Molecule,CD46 (MCP, membrane cofactor protein) is a multifunctional cell surface transmembrane protein that binds and inactivates C3b and C4b complement fragments, regulates T cell-induced inflammatory responses by either inhibiting (CD46-1 isoform) or increasing (CD46-2 isoform) the contact hypersensitivity reaction. CD46 also serves as a receptor for several human pathogens (both bacteria and viruses), and its ligation alteres T lymphocyte polarization toward antigen-presenting cells or target cells, inhibiting lymphocyte function. CD46 is a protector of placental tissue and is also expressed on the inner acrosomal membrane of spermatozoa.,MCP, TLX, AHUS2, MIC10, MGC26544
