Additional info: CD173 (blood group antigen H2) is a fucosylated saccharide (Fuc-alpha-1-2-Gal-beta-1-4-GlcNAc-beta) generated by beta-D-galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase (FUT1). CD173 belongs to markers of early hematopoiesis; it is expressed mainly on CD34-positive hematopoietic progenitor cells. CD173 is a precursor structure of CD174 (Lewis Y) and is also structurally related to CD15 (Lewis X). On endothelial cells CD173 and CD174 are concentrated on pseudopodial extensions responsible for initial contacts between endothelial cells.SpecificityThe mouse monoclonal antibody NOK-1 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD178 / Fas-L, an approximately 40 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on neutrophils, monocytes, and activated T and NK cells.Application detailsFlow cytometry: Recommended dilution: 2-5 μg/ml.
