Elab Fluor(R)700 Anti-Human CD101 Antibody[BB27]

CD101 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein, known as V7, and P126. It is a 120 kD homodimer, the member of EWI family within Ig superfamily. CD101 is found on monocytes, granulocytes, dendritic cells, a subpopulation of peripheral blood T cells and activated T cells. It has been reported that CD101 expressing Tregs posses higher inhibitory function. The biological function of CD101 is still not clear. But it has been found that BB27 antibody is able to inhibit T cell proliferative responses and this inhibitory function can be overcome by high doses of IL-2. Activation of CD101 on dendritic cells is able to induce IL-10 production. Protein function: Plays a role as inhibitor of T-cells proliferation induced by CD3. Inhibits expression of IL2RA on activated T-cells and secretion of IL2. Inhibits tyrosine kinases that are required for IL2 production and cellular proliferation. Inhibits phospholipase C-gamma-1/PLCG1 phosphorylation and subsequent CD3-induced changes in intracellular free calcium. Prevents nuclear translocation of nuclear factor of activated T-cell to the nucleus. Plays a role in the inhibition of T- cell proliferation via IL10 secretion by cutaneous dendritic cells. May be a marker of CD4(+) CD56(+) leukemic tumor cells. [The UniProt Consortium]
