CD66b (granulocytes) (clone BIRMA 17C) FITC, anti-human

Decription:
Mouse monoclonal antibody to human CD66b (granulocytes)-FITC conjugate. The CD66b antigen, a member of the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily, is a 95-100 kDa membrane bound protein encoded by a gene located on chromosome 19. The molecular structure of CD66b reveals a leader sequence of 34 amino acids (aa), an extracellular region of 284 aa and a 29aa hydrophobic domain replaced by GPI. CD66b has 2 Ig C2 domains and 1 IgG-V like domain. The CD66b antigen is expressed on granulocytes. CD66b exhibits only heterotypic adhesion with CD66c with no homophilic activity, suggesting the possibility that CD66b plays a role in the interaction between granulocytes or between granulocytes and epithelial cells.
