anti-CD14 Purified (Preservative-free)
Human CD14 is strongly expressed on myelomonocyte lineage cells including monocytes, macrophages, and a subset of granulocytes. CD14 is a high affinity receptor for complexes of lipopolysaccharide and lipopolysaccharide binding protein. A soluble form of CD14 also binds to LPS and LBP (5).
Isotype: Murine IgG2a
Immunogen: Human thymocytes/Sezary T cells
Specificity: Antibody UCHM1 recognizes an extracellular epiotpe of the human CD14 molecule of about 53 kd. UCHM1 will also immunoprecipitate a soluble form of CD14 (1, 2, 3). It is crossreactive with cynomolgus monkey CD14 (6).
