Anti-CD21L [R4/23] recombinant antibody

Invented at University of Oxford

Info

Catalogue Number 154810
Applications WB
Antigen/Gene or Protein Targets Complement component (3d/Epstein Barr virus) receptor 2; long form (CR2, CD21L)
Synonyms Complement Component (3d/Epstein Barr Virus) Receptor 2; Epstein-Barr Virus Receptor 2; Complement C3d Receptor 3; EBV Receptor 3; C3DR 3; CD21 Antigen; CVID7; SLEB9; CD21; Cr2
Reactivity Human
Relevance CR2 is expressed strongly on mature B cells, follicular dentritic cells and weakly on immature thymocytes and T lymphocytes. CR2 functions as a receptor for C3d, C3dg and iC3b Complement components and for EBV and for IFN alpha. Follicular dendritic cells (contained in B cell follicles) selectively express the “Long” isoform of CR2 (CD21L) that contains an additional exon (10a) compared to CR2 (CD21). R4/23 recognises the long form of CR2 and can be used to identify dendritic reticulum cells (or their remnants) in lymphoid tissues.
Host Mouse
Immunogen Cell lysate from a chronic lymphocytic leukemia patient.
Subclass IgM
Research Area Cell Type or Organelle Marker, Immunology
