General description
Myeloid cell surface antigen CD33 (cluster of differentiation 33), also known as SIGLEC3 (sialic acid binding Ig-like lectins) and GP67, belongs to the CD33-related SIGLEC gene family. It is a type 1 transmembrane protein and has two immunoglobulin-like extracellular domains, a single transmembrane area and two intracellular inhibitory motifs. The CD33 gene is located on human chromosome 19q13.
Immunogen
CD33 molecule
Application
Anti-CD33 antibody has been used in immunohistochemical staining.
Biochem/physiol Actions
CD33 (cluster of differentiation 33) is mainly involved in anti-inflammatory signaling, cell adhesion and endocytosis functions. CD33 serves as a myeloid differentiation marker. Mutations in the CD33 gene are associated with Alzheimer′s disease susceptibility and acute myeloid leukemia treatment efficacy.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
Linkage
Corresponding Antigen APREST71736.
Physical form
Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.2, containing 40% glycerol and 0.02% sodium azide.
