Description

Rat monoclonal [IM7] to CD44 (FITC)

Conjugation

FITC

Specificity

Recognizes all isoforms of the Pgp-1 cell surface glycoprotein. Present on B-cells, monocytes, macrophages and certain subsets of thymocytes and peripheral T-cells. Mice with the Ly-24.1 allotype have high densities of CD44+ T-cells, while Ly-24.2 strains are low expressors.

Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab19622 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

Receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA). Mediates cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions through its affinity for HA, and possibly also through its affinity for other ligands such as osteopontin, collagens, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Adhesion with HA plays an important role in cell migration, tumor growth and progression. Also involved in lymphocyte activation, recirculation and homing, and in hematopoiesis. Altered expression or dysfunction causes numerous pathogenic phenotypes. Great protein heterogeneity due to numerous alternative splicing and post-translational modification events.

Tissue specificity

Isoform 10 (epithelial isoform) is expressed by cells of epithelium and highly expressed by carcinomas. Expression is repressed in neuroblastoma cells.

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 Link domain.

Domain

The lectin-like LINK domain is responsible for hyaluronan binding.

Post-translational
modifications

Proteolytically cleaved in the extracellular matrix by specific proteinases (possibly MMPs) in several cell lines and tumors.
N-glycosylated.
O-glycosylated; contains more-or-less-sulfated chondroitin sulfate glycans, whose number may affect the accessibility of specific proteinases to their cleavage site(s).
Phosphorylated; activation of PKC results in the dephosphorylation of Ser-706 (constitutive phosphorylation site), and the phosphorylation of Ser-672.

Cellular localization

Membrane.

Overlay histogram showing MCF-7 cells stained with ab19622 (red line). The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min) and incubated in 1x PBS / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine to block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab19622, 1/50 dilution) for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was rat IgG2b [RTK4530] (ab18541, 2µg/1x106 cells) with secondary antibody DyLight® 488 goat anti-rat IgG (Fc) (ab96971) at 1/250 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in non-fixed and methanol (5 min) fixed MCF-7 cells used under the same conditions.

Tissue was fixed with formaldehyde and blocked with 5% serum for 1 hour at 25°C; antigen retrieval was by heat mediation in a citrate buffer (10mM; pH6.0). Samples were incubated with primary antibody (1/100) for 12 hours at 4°C. An undiluted Biotin-conjugated Donkey anti-rat IgG polyclonal was used as the secondary antibody.
