Anti-LAMP1 / CD107A, clone IIB-12

Antibody in PBS with 0.02% sodium azide, 50% glycerol and 0.4-0.5mg/ml BSA. The protein encoded by the LAMP1 gene is a member of a family of membrane glycoproteins. This glycoprotein provides selectins with carbohydrate ligands. It may also play a role in tumor cell metastasis. [RefSeq] Protein function: Lysosomal membrane glycoprotein which plays an important role in lysosome biogenesis, lysosomal pH regulation, autophagy and cholesterol homeostasis (PubMed:37390818). Acts as an important regulator of lysosomal lumen pH regulation by acting as a direct inhibitor of the proton channel TMEM175, facilitating lysosomal acidification for optimal hydrolase activity (PubMed:37390818). Also plays an important role in NK-cells cytotoxicity (PubMed:2022921, PubMed:23632890). Mechanistically, participates in cytotoxic granule movement to the cell surface and perforin trafficking to the lytic granule (PubMed:23632890). In addition, protects NK-cells from degranulation-associated damage induced by their own cytotoxic granule content (PubMed:23847195). Presents carbohydrate ligands to selectins (PubMed:7685349).
