CD63 Antibody / LAMP3

ELISA (order BSA/sodium azide-free format for coating),Flow cytometry: 1-2ug/million cells,Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1ug/ml

Optimal dilution of the LAMP-3 antibody should be determined by the researcher.

This mAb recognizes protein of 26kDa-60kDa, which is identified as CD63/LAMP-3. Its epitope is different from that of mAb LAMP3/803 or LAMP3/968 or NKI/C3 or MX-49.129.5. The tetraspanins are integral membrane proteins expressed on cell surface and granular membranes of hematopoietic cells and are components of multi-molecular complexes with specific integrins. The tetraspanin CD63 is a lysosomal membrane glycoprotein that translocates to the plasma membrane after platelet activation. CD63/LAMP-3 is expressed on activated platelets, monocytes and macrophages, and is weakly expressed on granulocytes, T cell and B cells. It is located on the basophilic granule membranes and on the plasma membranes of lymphocytes and granulocytes. It is a member of the TM4 superfamily of leukocyte glycoproteins that includes CD9, CD37 and CD53, which contain four transmembrane regions. CD63/LAMP-3 may play a role in phagocytic and intracellular lysosome-phagosome fusion events. Deficiency is associated with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome and is strongly expressed during the early stages of melanoma progression.
