Additional info: CD101 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein, which forms disulfide-linked homodimers. It is expressed on activated T cells, as well as on granulocytes, monocytes, dendritic cells or mucosal T cells. It plays a major role in the activation of T cells by skin dendritic cells. Function of CD101 has not been fully elucidated, but in mice its knock-out results in liver autoimmune disease induced by Novosphingobium aromaticivorans.SpecificityThe mouse monoclonal antibody CBR-IC2/2 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD102 (ICAM-2), an approximately 55 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed mainly on vascular endothelial cells and folicular dendritic cells, in lower amount on lymphocytes, monocytes and platelets.Application detailsFlow cytometry: Recommended dilution: 1-4 μg/ml.
