CD18 / PE / TS1/18

Product Details
Description Clone TS1/18 reacts with CD18, a type I transmembrane protein with an approximate molecular weight of 90–95 kDa. It non-covalently associates with alpha subunits CD11a (alphaL), CD11b (alphaM), CD11c (alphaX), and CD11d (alphaD) to form functional integrins which are expressed on leucocytes. CD18 associated integrins bind several ligands including cell surface and extracellular matrix proteins and are involved in cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix interactions, immune regulation, and immune tolerance. Leucocytes of patients lacking CD18 or expressing dysfunctional CD18 are defective in chemotaxis, phagocytosis, and homotypic aggregation.

About CD18
This gene encodes an integrin beta chain, which combines with multiple different alpha chains to form different integrin heterodimers. Integrins are integral cell-surface proteins that participate in cell adhesion as well as cell-surface mediated signalling. The encoded protein plays an important role in immune response and defects in this gene cause leukocyte adhesion deficiency. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

About PE
Phycoerythrin (PE, R-PE) is a red-emitting fluorescent protein-chromophore complex that can be excited the 488-nm blue, 532-nm green, or 561-nm yellow-green laser with increasing efficiency and captured with a 586/14 nm bandpass filter. PE has an excitation peak at 565 nm and an emission peak at 578 nm. PE is 240kD in size and has an extinction coefficient of ~2x10^6 which makes it one of the brightest fluorophores available and a potent donor upon which to build tandem fluorophores with longer Stoke's Shifts.
