This Mouse Monoclonal antibody specifically detects CD11b in FACS and IP. It exhibits reactivity toward Human and has been mentioned in 2+ publications.
The antibody MEM-174 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD11b antigen (Mac-1 alpha), a 165-170 kDa type I transmembrane protein mainly expressed on monocytes, granulocytes and NK-cells. The CD11b mediates neutrophil and monocyte interactions with stimulated endothelium.
Cross-Reactivity (Details)
Human
Purification
Purified antibody is conjugated with biotin LC-NHS ester under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free biotin are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Background
Integrin subunit alpha M,CD11b (integrin alphaM subunit) is a 165-170 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that non-covalently associates with integrin beta2 subunit (CD18), expression of the CD11b chain on the cell surface requires the presence of the CD18 antigen. CD11b/CD18 integrin (Mac-1, CR3) is highly expressed on NK cells, neutrophils, monocytes and less on macrophages. CD11b/CD18 integrin is implicated in various adhesive interactions of monocytes, macrophages and granulocytes, facilitating their diapedesis, as well as it mediates the uptake of complement coated particles, serving as a receptor for the iC3b fragment of the third complement component.,Mac-1, Integrin alpha M, ITGAM, CR3A, MO1A, MAC1A
