Target Details for CD55

Target: CD55 (Complement Decay-Accelerating Factor (CD55))

Alternative Name: CD55 / DAF

Background: CD55, also known as decay accelerating factor (DAF), is a 64-73 kDa GPI-anchored single chain glycoprotein that is expressed on all cells in contact with serum, including all hematopoietic cells and the vascular endothelium. A soluble form of CD55 is present in plasma and body fluids. CD55 is a member of the regulator of complement activity (RCA) family of proteins and is thought to play a role in the protection of cells from damage by autologous complement by preventing the amplification steps of the complement cascade. CD55 expression increases upon T cell activation and antibodies to CD55 are mitogenic in the presence of phorbol esters. (Ref.1-5)Synonyms: Complement decay-accelerating factor
