Anti-CD47, CT (CD47, MER6, Leukocyte surface antigen CD47, Antigenic surface determinant protein OA3

CD47 antigen, also known as integrin associated protein (IAP), has a very broad tissue distribution. CD47 is expressed on all hematopoietic cells, including leukocytes, platelets and erythrocytes. It is also expressed on epithelial cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts and many tumor cell lines. There are approximately 50.000 CD47 molecules per erythrocyte. The glycoprotein is deficient in erythrocytes of the rare Rh null phenotype. CD47 is a heavily N glycosylated cell membrane glycoprotein of apparent molecular weight 47-52 kDa. It may play a role as a signaltransducer in the regulation of cation fluxes across cell membranes and in the chemotactic and adhesive interactions of leukocytes with endothelial cells. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot, FLISA, Recommended Dilution: FLISA: 1:1,000, Western Blot: 1:100-500, Storage and Stability: Store product at 4°C if to be used immediately within two weeks. For long-term storage, aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing and store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable at -20°C for 12 months after receipt. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: FITC conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. , , Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
