The mouse monoclonal antibody 1A5 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD170 (Siglec-5, sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin 5), a transmembrane glycoprotein expressed strongly by neutrophils, macrophages activated during infections, monocytes, and dendritic cells. As in case with other anti-CD170 antibodies, this antibody crossreacts with Siglec-14, whose first two Ig domains are almost identical to those of CD170.
Aufreinigung
Purified antibody is conjugated with activated allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.
Immunogen
Fusion protein composed of human CD170 extracellular domain and Fc region of human IgG1
Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 10 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.
Sialic acid binding Ig like lectin 5,CD170, also known as Siglec 5 (sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin 5) is a type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein containing two cytoplasmic immunoreceptor tyrosine inhibitory motifs (ITIMs). CD170 forms homodimers and functions as an inhibitory receptor able to downregulate cell activation. It binds to alpha2,3- and alpha2,6-linked sialic acid ligands, e.g. on glycophorin A (CD235a). Aberrant expression of CD170 by CD34+ progenitor cells can be observed in case of acute myeloid leukemias.,OBBP2, OB-BP2, SIGLEC-5, SIGLEC5
