Background
The RPA-2.10 antibody reacts with human CD2, an approximately 50 kDa glycoprotein, and a member of the Ig superfamily. CD2, also known as LFA-2, is a receptor for CD58 in the human and is expressed on the cell surface of 80-90% of human peripheral blood lymphocytes, a subset of NK cells, and all mature T cells. CD2 mediates lymphocyte adhesion and is involved in T cell activation. RPA-2.10 is reported to block mixed lymphocyte reaction. Please choose the appropriate format for each application
