Description: CD46 exists as many isoforms in a variety of tissues. It is strongly expressed on salivary gland ducts and kidney ducts, moderately on lymphocytes and endothelium, and weakly on interstitial tissues and muscle cells, but not on erythrocytes. CD46 functions as a C3b/C4b-binding glycoprotein that inhibits complement activation on host cells. It also serves as a measles virus receptor, an adherence factor for group A Streptococcus pyogenes, and a cellular pilus receptor for pathogenic Neisseria.
Immunogen: Recombinant human CD46 protein was used as the immunogen for the CD46 antibody.
Storage: Aliquot the CD46 antibody and store frozen at -20 °C or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
