Biorbyt's CD45 Antibody Cocktail is a Mouse monoclonal antibody. The CD45 Antibody Cocktail was generated using PTPRC as the antigen. It reacts with Homo Sapiens, and Human. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Immunohistochemistry, Immunohistochemistry - fixed, and Western Blot.
Description
CD45, also referred to as CD45R and PTPRC (Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C), has been identified as a transmembrane glycoprotein, broadly expressed among hematopoietic cells. Along with other members of the PTP family, it regulates a number of cellular processes including cell differentiation, growth and mitotic cycle, and is an essential regulator of B- and T-cell antigen receptor-mediated activation.Multiple isoforms of CD45 are distributed throughout the immune system and arise due to alternative splicing of exons located in the N-terminus. CD45RA contains the A exon and is a naive T-cell marker which may help prevent autoimmune disease. CD45RB contains B and stains most leukemias and lymphomas. CD45RC contains C and stains thymocytes, monocytes and dendritic cells. CD45RO doesn't contain A, B or C and is a marker of activated T-cells that can be used to classify and diagnose and classify lymphomas. This antibody cocktail will bind to all CD45 isoforms. The variation in these isoforms is localized to the extracellular domain, with the intracellular domain being conserved. Antibody to CD45 is useful in differential diagnosis of lymphoid tumors from non-hematopoietic undifferentiated neoplasms
