Anti-CD300C antibody produced in rabbit

CD300C (CD300c molecule) is a membrane receptor belonging to the IgV-like glycoprotein family called CD300. This family includes activating members namely, CD300b, CD300c, CD300d and CD300e, and inhibitory members namely, CD300a and CD300f. CD300C is exclusively expressed by monocytes and leukocytes, and was the first member of this family to be identified. Its transmembrane domain contains a negatively charged amino acid, and it has a short cytosolic region. This gene is localised to human chromosome 17, spans ~4.5kb, and has four exons. The signal peptide and the 5′-untranslated region is coded by exon1, the Ig (immunoglobulin)-like domain by exon2, exon 3 encodes for the region proximal to membrane and exon 4 codes for the transmembrane region.

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies^® protocols and other useful information.

CD300C (CD300c molecule) plays an important role in inflammation, where it co-stimulates with LPS (lipopolysaccharide), the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. It is also responsible for the mobilization of intracellular Ca²⁺ and activation of CD88 molecule. It is responsible for the activation of monocytes and mast cells, through Fc receptor-γ. It is involved in the regulation of TCR (T-cell receptor) mediated signaling, and is expressed differentially on TH (T-helper)-1 (IFN-γ producing) cells and TH17 (IL-17a producing) cells.

Prestige Antibodies^® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies^® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:

• IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
• Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
