Catalogue Number 151108
Applications FACS IHC IF
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets Protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, C (PTPRC, CD45)
Reactivity Human
Relevance Monoclonal antibody capable of analysing subpopulations of hematopoietic and lymphoid cells, and the degree of T cell differentiation. It can be used to identify the effect of CD45 in immune function.

Background and Research Application
Anti-PTPRC (Hle-1) monoclonal antibody binds transmembrane protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C (PTPRC), also known as CD45 antigen or leukocyte common antigen (LCA). Anti-PTPRC can be used in a panel of several monoclonal antibodies to characterise tumours. This antibody was created to investigate the similarities between normal thymocyte subpopulations and leukaemia’s of thymic origin (Thy-ALL), and aid with leukaemia diagnosis.
PTPRC is present on all leukocytes. CD45 helps regulate T cell receptor-associated kinases and Janus kinases which transmit signals from cytokine receptors. This regulates the threshold of T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signalling through dephosphorylation of protein tyrosine kinases (e.g. Lck and Fyn). It is only expressed on nucleated hemopoietic cells (~10% of cell surface). CD45 phosphatase activity is required for efficient lymphocyte antigen receptor signal transduction.
CD45 is a positive and negative regulator of Src family members, and can act as a JAK phosphatase, negatively regulating cytokine receptor activation (related to differentiation, proliferation and anti-viral immunity of hemopoietic cells).

Points of Interest
Anti-PTPRC recognises all isoforms of CD45. It reacts strongly with cortical thymocytes, medullary thymus lymphocytes and peripheral lymphoid cells (including T and B cells), but reacts weakly with myeloid and erythroid bone marrow cells. Anti-PTPRC can be used to detect levels of T cell differentiation.

The antibody clone name was called "Hle-1" in Cobbold et al., 1986. Proceedings of the 3rd International Workshop and Conference; Oxford, England. Oxford University Press; 1987. p. 788-803.
