The 15.2 antibody reacts with the 85-110 kDa intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), a member of the Ig superfamily which acts as a ligand for the Lymphocyte Function-Associated Antigen-1 (LFA-1).
纯化方法
The monoclonal antibody was purified utilizing affinity chromatography and unreacted dye was removed from the product.
The 15.2 antibody reacts with human CD54, also known as ICAM-1 (Intercellular Adhesion Molecule 1), a 90-110 kDa cell surface glycoprotein that is inducibly expressed on both immune and endothelial cells. As its name implies, ICAM-1 participates in cell-cell adhesion between leukocytes and endothelial cells, facilitating leukocyte recruitment and transmigration at sites of inflammation. The ligands for ICAM-1 are also expressed on leukocyte and endothelial cells, and include Mac-1, fibrinogen, and a member of the integrin protein family, LFA-1 (CD11a).The 15.2 antibody may be used for analysis of ICAM-1 expression in human cells and tissues, and is reported to be cross-reactive with porcine ICAM-1.
