Description: HI58a is an anti-human monoclonal antibody that targets the CD58 antigen. CD58 (sometimes referred to as Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3, LFA3 or LFA-3) is a 45 - 70 kD transmembrane protein that is located on the surface of cells such as macrophages, NK cells, dendritic cells, B cells and granulocytes. CD58 has been associated with key biological processes such as cell-cell adhesion, especially heterotypic cell-cell adhesion. Also, in certain organisms, it is involved in the positive regulation of interleukin-8 secretion. From a research standpoint, it is of biological interest due to its association with important macromolecules/ligands like CD2 and LFA-2. CD58 is a relatively rare antibody target, with less than 1000 publications in the last decade. Even still, CD58 is commonly used in flow cytometry applications as a phenotypic marker for differentiation of cell types, especially in the study of cell biology. This antibody was purified through affinity chromatography and conjugated to mFluor™ Violet 500 (ex/em = 410/501 nm). It is compatible with the 405 nm laser and 525/40 nm bandpass filter (for example, as in the Beckman Coulter DxFLEX).
