CD55 antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN94185

Product Details anti-CD55 Antibody (FITC)

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

Reactivity: Human, Non-Human Primate

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD55 antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Purpose: Anti-Hu CD55 FITC

Specificity: The antibody MEM-118 recognizes an epitope in SCR4 domain of CD55 (Decay accelerating factor, DAF), a 60-70 kDa glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored single chain extracellular glycoprotein. CD55 is widely expressed on hematopoietic and on many non-hematopoietic cells, it is weakly present on NK cells.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human, Non-Human Primates

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: HPB-ALL human T cell line

Clone: MEM-118

Isotype: IgM

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 20 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (2 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Alternative Name: CD55 (CD55 Products)

Background: CD55 Molecule (Cromer blood group),CD55 (decay-accelerating factor, DAF) is a GPI-anchored membrane glycoprotein that protects autologous cells from classical and alternative pathway of complement cascade. Bidirectional interactions between CD55 and CD97 are involved in T cell regulation and CD55 can still regulate complement when bound to CD97. In tumours, besides protection agains complement, CD55 promotes neoangiogenesis, tumorigenesis, invasiveness and evasion of apoptosis.,DAF, CROM, CHAPLE
