CX3CR1 Antibody, anti-human, APC, REAfinity™

01MT11794

Clone REA385 recognizes the human CX3C chemokine receptor 1 antigen, a 40 kDa G-protein–coupled multi-pass membrane protein also known as fractalkine receptor. CX3CR1 is expressed on natural killer (NK) cells, T cell subsets, monocytes/macrophages, dendritic cells (DCs), and some malignant epithelial cells. Binding of CX3CR1 to the membrane-bound form of the chemokine CX3CL1 promotes cell-cell adhesion, whereas the soluble form induces cell migration of CX3CR1-bearing cells such as monocytes, NK cells, T cells, DCs, and macrophages including microglia. CX3CR1 plays also an important role in t
