CD209b (SIGN-R1) Antibody, anti-mouse, Biotin, REAfinity™

01MT03700

Clone REA125 recognizes the mouse CD209b antigen, a single-pass type II membrane protein also known as DC-SIGN-related protein 1 (SIGN-R1). CD209b was identified by examination of the mouse genome in search of the complete set of proteins related to the human glycan binding receptor CD209 (DC-SIGN). Unlike the human CD209, mouse CD209b is not expressed on dendritic cells (DCs) but is on splenic marginal zone, lymph node, and peritoneal macrophages. Its high affinity for murine ICAM-2, and its localization at sites that are in close contact with blood, suggest a role for CD209b in lymphocyte mi
