Additional info: CD1d belongs to CD1 family of transmembrane glycoproteins, associated with beta2 microglobulin, similarly to MHC I molecules. Unlike other CD1 family members, however, CD1d can be also expressed in a non-glycosylated form, which is not associated with beta2 microglobulin. Hence it is not certain how much CD1d plays a role in the presentation of microbial lipid antigens during infection. On the other hand, it is expressed on various antigen presenting cell types. Besides it, CD1d+ thymocytes are involved in the positive selection of sublineage of NKT cells.SpecificityThe antibody MEM-65 recognizes a unique extracellular epitope of CD2, a 50 kDa glycoprotein present on the human peripheral blood T-lymphocytes and NK cells; also expressed by all thymocytes.Application detailsFlow cytometry: Recommended dilution: 4-8 μg/ml.
