CD98 Antibody, anti-human, APC, REAfinity™

01MT03170

Clone REA387 recognizes the human CD98 antigen, a single-pass type II membrane glycoprotein. CD98 is broadly expressed on non-hematopoietic cells and also on peripheral blood lymphocytes, monocytes, and granulocytes. The CD98 heterodimer consists of a 80–85 kDa heavy chain (CD98hc, also known as 4F2 antigen heavy chain or FRP-1) that is disulfide-linked with a multi-pass light chain of 40 kDa. The heavy chain binds to the cytoplasmic tails of integrin-β chains and mediates adhesive signals that control cell spreading, survival, and growth. The light chain functions in amino acid transport.
