CD222 Monoclonal / FITC / MEM-238
Product Details
| Description | CD222 (CIMPR, cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor; IGF2 receptor) is a ubiquitously expressed 250 kDa transmembrane protein. No more than 10% of CD222 is present on the cell surface where it serves as a multifunctional receptor. Intracellular (major) fraction of CD222 is involved in transport of newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes modified by mannose 6-phosphate from Golgi apparatus to lysosomes. The cell surface CD222 binds and internalizes exogeneous mannose 6-phosphate-containing ligands. Importantly, CD222 is crutial for internalization and degradation of insulin-like growth factor 2, thus controling cell growth. CD222 also complexes CD87 (urokinase-type plasminogen-activator receptor), plasminogen and latent TGF-beta, last but not least CD222 serves as a receptor for heparanase and even for Listeria. | |

About FITC
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) has an excitation peak at 495 nm and an emission peak at 519 nm. The name FITC is a misnomer in that the isothiocyanate is a reactive form of this dye. Once FITC is conjugated to an antibody, it is simply Fluorescein conjugated. FITC is one of the most widely used dyes for fluorescent applications, therefore most instruments come standard with a 488 nm laser and FITC filter set up. FITC is commonly conjugated to secondary antibodies and used in applications such as flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry. FITC is relatively dim, sensitive to photobleaching and it is susceptible to changes is pH. There are better performing alternatives to FITC, like Vio®Bright 515, Alexa Fluor™ 488, iFluor® 488, CF®488A and DY-488. FITC is a long-time generic dye with no sole manufacturer or trademark.
