CD59 Polyclonal Antibody

Target Information

Target Name	CD59
Uniprot ID	P13987
Cellular Localization	Cell membrane. Secreted. Soluble form found in a number of tissues.
Immunogen	Synthetic peptide corresponding to Human CD59 aa 50 to the C-terminus conjugated to keyhole limpet haemocyanin.
Function	Potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC) action. Acts by binding to the C8 and/or C9 complements of the assembling MAC, thereby preventing incorporation of the multiple copies of C9 required for complete formation of the osmolytic pore. This inhibitor appears to be species-specific. Involved in signal transduction for T-cell activation complexed to a protein tyrosine kinase.The soluble form from urine retains its specific complement binding activity, but exhibits greatly reduced ability to inhibit MAC assembly on cell membranes.
