Description: The monoclonal antibody eBio8D9 reacts with an eptiope shared by mouse CD21 (CR2) and CD35 (CR1). CD21 and CD35 are alternatively spliced transcripts from the Cr2 gene, which produce cell-surface proteins of 145 and 190 kDa, respectively. CD21 and CD35 are expressed by mature B cells, but not on thymocytes, peripheral T cells, erythrocytes or platelets. Furthermore, there is some evidence which demonstrates their expression on macrophages. CD21 is a receptor for the complement component C3d and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). In association with CD19 and CD81, CD21 also participates in B-cell activation through the B cell receptor. Cr2-deficient mice display impaired inflammatory and humoral immune responses in vivo.
The anti-mouse CD21/35 monoclonal antibody clones eBio4E3 and eBio8D9 do not cross-block each other, suggesting that they bind to different epitopes.
