CD99 / APC / 3B2/TA8

Product Details
Description Clone 3B2/TA8 recognizes the human CD99 antigen, a 32 kDa type I single chain transmembrane sialoglycoprotein which is also known as E2 antigen or MIC2. The expression level of CD99 is particularly high in thymocytes, T cells, T cell leukemias and lymphomas, subsets of mature plasma cells in the medullary cord of reactive lymph nodes, pancreatic islet cells, granulosa cells of the ovary, Sertoli cells of the testes, but absent on granulocytes. It is involved in T cell–adhesion processes and in spontaneous rosette formation with erythrocytes. CD99 plays a role in a late step of leukocyte extravasation helping leukocytes to overcome the endothelial basement membrane and it acts at the same site as, but independently of, PECAM1.

About CD99
The protein encoded by this gene is a cell surface glycoprotein involved in leukocyte migration, T-cell adhesion, ganglioside GM1 and transmembrane protein transport, and T-cell death by a caspase-independent pathway. In addition, the encoded protein may have the ability to rearrange the actin cytoskeleton and may also act as an oncosuppressor in osteosarcoma. This gene is found in the pseudoautosomal region of chromosomes X and Y and escapes X-chromosome inactivation. There is a related pseudogene located immediately adjacent to this locus.

About APC
Allophycocyanin (APC) is a fluorescent protein derived from cyanobacteria and red algae and a potent donor fluorophore to create tandem dyes that can be excited off the 633-640 nm laser. APC has an excitation peak at 650 nm and a emission peak at 660 nm.
