From
Recombinant Antibody
Specificity
This antibody binds rat CD44 at an epitope overlapping with asparagine residue 67. The murine homologue of CD44 has a histidine in this position which is sufficient to abrogate binding (Zheng et al. 1995).
Alternative Names
CDW44, CSPG8, ECMR-III, HCELL, HUTCH-I, IN, LHR, MC56; MDU2; MDU3;MIC4; Pgp1; CD44 molecule (Indian blood group); HCAM; Hermes antigen; Pgp-1; lymphocyte homing receptor; ECM-III; HUTCH-1
UniProt
Immunogen
T blasts from a mixed lymphocyte reaction between purified rat CD4+ T cells and irradiated spleen.
Application Notes
This antibody antibody recoginses rat CD44.
