Description | CD2 is a surface antigen of the human T-lymphocyte lineage that is expressed on all peripheral blood T cells (summarized by Sewell et al., 1986 [PubMed 3490670]). It is one of the earliest T-cell markers, being present on more than 95% of thymocytes; it is also found on some natural killer cells but not on B lymphocytes. Monoclonal antibodies directed against CD2 inhibit the formation of rosettes with sheep erythrocytes, indicating that CD2 is the erythrocyte receptor or is closely associated with it.; |
Immunogen | Purified recombinant fragment of human CD2 (AA: 25-140) expressed in E. Coli. |
Formulation | Purified antibody in PBS with 0.05% sodium azide |

Precautions | Mouse Monoclonal Antibody to CD2 is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | CD2 |

Synonyms | SRBC |
Function | CD2 interacts with lymphocyte function-associated antigen CD58 (LFA-3) and CD48/BCM1 to mediate adhesion between T-cells and other cell types. CD2 is implicated in the triggering of T-cells, the cytoplasmic domain is implicated in the signaling function. |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Expressed in natural killer cells (at protein level). |
