Milli-Mark® Anti-CD13-FITC Antibody, clone WM-47

Description

• General description: CD13 is a 150 kDa Type II integral membrane protein composed of 967 amino acids (Turni, 2002; Ashmun, 1995; Look, 1989). CD13 is identical in structure to aminopeptidase N, a membrane-bound zinc-binding metalloprotease (Turni, 2002). CD13 is expressed on the surface of committed granulocyte-monocyte progenitors (CFU-GM) and by cells of the granulocyte and monocyte lineages at all stages of differentiation (Turni, 2002; Ashmun, 1995; Look, 1989). The antigen is also expressed on a small proportion of large granular lymphocytes, but not on B or T cells (Ashmun, 1995; Look, 1989). Further, CD13 is expressed on some non-hematopoietic cells including fibroblasts, endothelial cells, epithelial cells from renal proximal tubules and intestinal brush border, bone marrow stromal cells, osteoclasts, and cells lining the bile duct canaliculi (Turni, 2002; Ashmun, 1995; Look, 1989).Anti-CD13, WM-47, was included in the Fourth and Fifth International Workshop and Conference on Leucocyte Differentiation Antigens and studies by a number of laboratories confirmed its reactivity with CD 13 (Ashmun, 1995; Look, 1989).
