Anti-Hu CD103 PerCP-Cy™5.5

Anti-Hu CD103 PerCP-Cy™5.5

• Background: CD103 / integrin alphaE is an integrin subunit that is expressed on intraepithelial lymphocytes, epithelial dendritic cells, lamina propria-derived dendritic cells, a subpopulation of lamina propria T cells, a small subset of peripheral lymphocytes, namely T reg cells, and on activated and TGF-beta stimulated lymphocytes. CD103 is in mature form cleaved into two disulfide-linked chains (C-terminal 150 kDa chain and N-terminal 25 kDa chain). It heterodimerizes with integrin beta7 subunit to form alphaE/beta7 integrin (mucosal lymphocyte 1 antigen), which through binding E-cadherin mediates homing of lymphocytes to the intestinal epithelium, and, in addition to the role in adhesion, may serve as an accessory molecule for intraepithelial lymphocyte activation.
• Specifications: The mouse monoclonal antibody Ber-ACT8 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD103 (alpha E integrin), a type I transmembrane glycoprotein primarily found on intestinal intraepithelial lymphocytes.
