Background: | CD173 (blood group antigen H2) is a fucosylated saccharide (Fuc-alpha-1-2-Gal-beta-1-4-GlcNAc-beta) generated by beta-D-galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase (FUT1). CD173 belongs to markers of early hematopoiesis; it is expressed mainly on CD34-positive hematopoietic progenitor cells. CD173 is a precursor structure of CD174 (Lewis Y) and is also structurally related to CD15 (Lewis X). On endothelial cells CD173 and CD174 are concentrated on pseudopodial extensions responsible for initial contacts between endothelial cells. |
Preparation: | The hybridoma culture supernatant is 4 x concentrated by ultrafiltration using 100 kDa-cut off membrane. |
