Product description |
The H4A3 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with human CD107a, a heavily glycosylated type I membrane glycoprotein. CD107a is also known as Lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) and is widely expressed intracellular antigen. It can be found on the surface of PHA-activated lymphocytes, activated platelets, cytotoxic T cells, NK cells, macrophages, epithelial cells, endothelial cells, and some tumor lines. CD107a is a ligand for E-selectin and galaptin and is reported to be involved in cell adhesion and tumor metastasis.1) Chen, J. W., Cha, Y. I. N. G., Yuksel, K. U., Gracy, R. W., August, J. T.
