CD47 (clone BRIC 126 ) FITC, anti-human

Decription:
Mouse monoclonal antibody to human CD47 FITC conjugate. CD47 is a heavily N-glycosylated hydrophobic cell membrane glycoprotein of apparent molecular weight 45-60 kDa on erythrocytes and 47-55 kDa on platelets. Analysis of the CD47 amino acid sequence predicts that the protein has an extracellular immunoglobulin (IgV)-like domain at the amino-terminus (about 120 amino acids), five membrane spanning segments (about 152 amino acids), and a short hydrophobic intracytoplasmic tail (about 30 amino acids). The gene encoding human CD47 is located on q.1-.2 on human chromosome . The glycoprotein function is of an adhesion and thrombospondin receptor. CD47 has a very broad tissue distribution and is present on hemopoetic cells, epithelial cells, fibroblasts, brain, tumour cell lines, mesenchymal cells. There are approximately 50,000 CD47 molecules per erythrocyte. The glycoprotein is deficient in erythrocytes of the rare Rh null phenotype.
