Reacts with nonlymphoid dendritic cells: interdigitating cells (IDC), veiled cells and Langerhans cells, thymic epithelial cells. Monoclonal antibody NLDC-145 identifies Ia positive interdigitating cells, veiled cells and Langerhans cells of the skin and their in vitro counterparts. The antigen is expressed at high levels by dendritic cells and thymic epithelial cells. The antigen detected by NLDC-145 is an integral membrane glycoprotein with an apparent mass of 205 kDa, also known as DEC-205.

Mouse CD205, also known as DEC-205 (dendritic and epithelial cells, 205 kDa). CD205 is an integral membrane glycoprotein involved in antigen uptake, trafficking and presentation that improves the induction of antigen-specific T cell immunity. CD205 is highly expressed by CD8+ dendritic cells (DCs) and also expressed at different levels by bone marrow Gr1+ cells, Langerhans cells, (BMDC) bone marrow derived DCs and thymic epithelial cells. DEC-205 is apparently a receptor involved in antigen-processing by dendritic cells.Synonyms: C-type lectin domain family 13 member B, CLEC13B, DEC205, LY75, Lymphocyte antigen 75, gp200-MR6
