Anti-Mouse CD205 PE-Cyanine7

Description: The 205yekta antibody reacts with mouse CD205, also known as DEC-205 (dendritic and epithelial cells, 205 kDa). CD205 is an integral membrane glycoprotein involved in antigen uptake, trafficking and presentation that improves the induction of antigen-specific T cell immunity. CD205 is highly expressed by CD8+ dendritic cells (DCs) and also expressed at different levels by bone marrow Gr1+ cells, Langerhans cells, (BMDC) bone marrow derived DCs and thymic epithelial cells.

CD205 has been shown to bind to PE-Cy5.5 antibody and streptavidin conjugates; therefore, this format should not be used on CD205+ dendritic cells.
