Contributor Information

  • Institute Netherlands Cancer Institute

Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-CD11b/CR3 (Integrin Subunit Alpha M) [BEAR1]
  • Alternate names: ITGAM; Leukocyte Adhesion Receptor MO1
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Molecular weight of the target: 160 kDa
  • Application: FACS ; IP
  • Strain: Balb/c
  • Description: ITGAM is one protein subunit that forms heterodimeric integrin alpha-M beta-2 (Î?MÎ?2) molecule, also known as macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1) or complement receptor 3 (CR3). The second chain of Î?MÎ?2 is the common integrin Î?2 subunit known as CD18, and integrin Î?MÎ?2 thus belongs to the Î?2 subfamily (or leukocyte) integrins. Î?MÎ?2 is expressed on the surface of many leukocytes involved in the innate immune system, including monocytes, granulocytes, macrophages, and natural killer cells. It mediates inflammation by regulating leukocyte adhesion and migration and has been implicated in several immune processes such as phagocytosis, cell-mediated cytotoxicity, chemotaxis and cellular activation
  • Immunogen: The mouse was immunized with purified human monocytes
  • Isotype: IgG1
  • Research area: Cell biology; Cell signaling and signal transduction; Immunology
  • Myeloma used: Sp2/0-Ag14

  • For Research Use Only

Target Details

  • Target: CD11b/CR3
  • Target molecular weight: 160 kDa
  • Target background: ITGAM is one protein subunit that forms heterodimeric integrin alpha-M beta-2 (aM?2) molecule, also known as macrophage-1 antigen (Mac-1) or complement receptor 3 (CR3). The second chain of aM?2 is the common integrin ?2 subunit known as CD18, and integrin aM?2 thus belongs to the ?2 subfamily (or leukocyte) integrins. aM?2 is expressed on the surface of many leukocytes involved in the innate immune system, including monocytes, granulocytes, macrophages, and natural killer cells. It mediates inflammation by regulating leukocyte adhesion and migration and has been implicated in several immune processes such as phagocytosis, cell-mediated cytotoxicity, chemotaxis and cellular activation
