Product Specific Information

This antibody recognizes an extracellular epitope on the SCR4 (membrane-proximal SCR) domain of CD46 (Membrane cofactor protein).
CD46 is a 56–66 kDa dimeric transmembrane protein expressed on T and B lymphocytes, platelets, monocytes, granulocytes, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, and fibroblasts; it is negative on erythrocytes.

Target Information

CD46 (MCP, membrane cofactor protein) is a multifunctional cell surface transmembrane protein that binds and inactivates C3b and C4b complement fragments. It regulates T cell-induced inflammatory responses by either inhibiting (CD46-1 isoform) or increasing (CD46-2 isoform) the contact hypersensitivity reaction.
CD46 also serves as a receptor for several human pathogens (bacteria and viruses) and influences T lymphocyte polarization toward antigen-presenting or target cells, modulating immune function.
It protects placental tissue and is expressed on the inner acrosomal membrane of spermatozoa.
