Anti-CD83 (CD83 Antigen, CD83 Molecule, B cell Activation Protein, BL11, Cell Surface Protein HB15,

CD83 is a 45kD type I transmembrane protein. It belongs to immunoglobulin superfamily and is expressed on mature dendritic cells and activated lymphocytes. CD83 is involved in the regulation of T cell development and immune response. Soluble form CD83 has been reported to inhibit dendritic cell maturation and dendritic cell-mediated T cell proliferation. Murine CD83 ligand has been found on B cells.
