DescriptionThe eB-h209 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD209, also known as DC-SIGN, a 44 kDa type II transmembrane protein. DC-SIGN contains a C-type lectin binding domain and binds ICAM-3, ICAM-2, and HIV virus. Human dendritic cells preferentially express DC-SIGN. It has been postulated that DC-SIGN serves as a receptor for capture, trafficking, and transmission of HIV to T cells and supports primary immune response. eB-h209 was developed against a C-terminal peptide of human DC-SIGN. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The eB-h209 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications TestedThe eB-h209 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of cultured human dendritic cells and peripheral blood leukocytes. This can be used at 20 μl per 100 μl blood (or per 1 million cells in 100 μl total staining volume). References
