Anti-Human CD94 FITC

Description: The DX22 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD94, a 70 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein. CD94 belongs to the C-type lectin superfamily and is present as a heterodimer with NKG2 on the surface. CD94 is expressed by NK cells, a subset of gd T cells, and NKT cells and plays an important role in adhesion and activation of NK cell lineage.
