Anti-Human LAMP-1/CD107a (2E9) ColorWheel^® Dye-Ready mAb

ColorWheel^® technology is a novel and proprietary method of creating your own antibody and dye combinations for use in flow cytometry. By incubating any ColorWheel^® antibody with any ColorWheel^® dye, researchers can quickly and simply produce primary conjugated antibodies for use in single color or multicolor flow cytometry analysis. Each ColorWheel^® antibody and dye is lyophilized for long-term storage, allowing for simplicity and flexibility without compromise. ColorWheel^® technology requires both ColorWheel^® antibody and ColorWheel^® dye for Flow Cytometry application.

This ColorWheel^®Dye-Ready monoclonal antibody was developed using our proprietary ZooMAb^® recombinant antibody technology. It offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals

Lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 1 (UniProt: P11279; also known as LAMP-1, Lysosome-associated membrane protein 1, CD107 antigen-like family member A, CD107a) is encoded by the LAMP1 gene (Gene ID: 3916) in human. LAMP-1 and LAMP-2 are two highly glycosylated proteins found in the lysosomal membrane. They may contribute up to 50% of all proteins present in the lysosomal membranes. They are known to maintain the lysosomal acidification and lysosomal membrane integrity. Extensive N-glycosylation on LAMP-1 and 2 to protects them from the lysosomal proteolysis. However, higher levels of poly-N-acetyllactosamines on LAMP-1 and 2 have been correlated with decreased cellular differentiation and enhanced metastatic potential. Over-expression of LAMP-1 has also been implicated in breast cancer development and progression. LAMP-1 is a single-pass type I transmembrane protein that is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-28), which is subsequently cleaved off to generate the mature form that contains a large lumenal domain (aa 29-382), a transmembrane domain (aa 383-405), and a short C-terminal cytoplasmic tail (aa 406-417). LAMP-1 presents carbohydrate ligands to selectins and is also reported to act as a receptor for Lassa virus protein. It is reported to shuttle between lysosomes, endosomes, and the plasma membrane. Two isoforms of LAMP-1 have been described that are produced by alternative splicing. (Ref.: Wang, Q., et al. (2017). Oncol. Lett. 14(4); 4729 - 4735; Tan, K-P., et al. (2016).
