Target Details
- Target: Protein tyrosine phosphatase, receptor type, C (PTPRC, CD45)
- Target molecular weight: 180-220 kDa
- Target background: Anti-PTPRC (Hle-1) monoclonal antibody binds transmembrane protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C (PTPRC), also known as CD45 antigen or leukocyte common antigen (LCA). Anti-PTPRC can be used in a panel of several monoclonal antibodies to characterise tumours. This antibody was created to investigate the similarities between normal thymocyte subpopulations and leukaemia's of thymic origin (Thy-ALL), and aid with leukaemia diagnosis. PTPRC is present on all leukocytes. CD45 helps regulate T cell receptor-associated kinases and Janus kinases which transmit signals from cytokine receptors. This regulates the threshold of T cell antigen receptor (TCR) signalling through dephosphorylation of protein tyrosine kinases (e.g. Lck and Fyn). It is only expressed on nucleated hemopoietic cells (~10% of cell surface). CD45 phosphatase activity is required for efficient lymphocyte antigen receptor signal transduction. CD45 is a positive and negative regulator of Src family members, and can act as a JAK phosphatase, negatively regulating cytokine receptor activation (related to differentiation, proliferation and anti-viral immunity of hemopoietic cells).
