Monoclonal Anti-CD15 antibody produced in mouse

Cluster of differentiation 15 (CD15), also known as fucosyltransferase 4 (FUT4)/ Lewis x blood group antigen, is encoded by the gene mapped to long arm of human chromosome 11q21. It is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues such as gastrointestinal tract, brain and leukocytes.

The antibody MEM-158 reacts with CD15, a cell membrane molecule 3-fucosyl-N-acetyllactosamine (3-FAL) strongly expressed on granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, mast cells; it is also present on Langerhans cells and some myeloid precursors cells.

Human granulocytes

The reagent is designed for Flow Cytometry analysis using 10 μL reagent / 100 μL of sample.

Cluster of differentiation 15 (CD15)/fucosyltransferase 4 catalyzes the synthesis of Le^x on the surface of the proliferating cells, in organ buds progressing in mesenchyma, during human embryogenesis. Overexpression of the gene has been associated with development of various type of cancers such as colon cancer, pancreatic cancer, gastric cancer and lung adenocarcinoma. siRNAs of FUT1/4 can be used as a potent therapeutic agent in human LeY-expressing cancers.
