CD133 antibody [293C3] (PE)

9

This antibody recognizes the epitope 2 on human CD133 (CD133/2), a 120 kDa glycoprotein of prominin family, expressed e.g. on progenitor cells. This antibody is important for identification of human renal progenitors.

FACS: 10 microl reagent / 100 microl of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension. *Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the researcher.Not tested in other applications.

This gene encodes a pentaspan transmembrane glycoprotein. The protein localizes to membrane protrusions and is often expressed on adult stem cells, where it is thought to function in maintaining stem cell properties by suppressing differentiation. Mutations in this gene have been shown to result in retinitis pigmentosa and Stargardt disease. Expression of this gene is also associated with several types of cancer. This gene is expressed from at least five alternative promoters that are expressed in a tissue-dependent manner. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
