anti-CD81 FITC Conjugate

Human CD81 is a member of the tetraspan family of leukocyte cell surface molecules which are involved in signal transduction, cell-cell adhesion, and cellular activation (1).  Association of CD81 with integrins appears to be functionally important in the regulation of cell adhesion and activation (2, 3).  Work with CD81-null mice indicates CD81 is important for development of humoral immune response (4). The level of cell surface CD81 decreases rapidly upon activation of T or B cell, and appears to be shed off in exosomes (6).  CD81 colocalizes with intracellular HIV-1 containing vesicals (5) and interacts with Gag viral assembly protiens(7).

Isotype: Murine IgG1

Immunogen: Human B cell line from Burkitt lymphoma

Specificity: Antibody 1.3.3.22 reacts with the 24 kd tetraspan CD81 molecule (1).  The binding site of this mAb interferes with the binding of Hepatiatis C E2 glycoprotein to CD81 and may involve Leu162 (8).
