Antibody type
Monoclonal antibodies
Protein name
Hematopoietic progenitor cell antigen CD34 (CD antigen CD34)
Immunogen
Synthesized peptide derived from human CD34
Specificity
This antibody detects endogenous levels of human CD34. Heat-induced epitope retrieval (HIER) TRIS-EDTA of pH8.0 was highly recommended as antigen repair method in paraffin section
Constitute
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.5% BSA and 0.02% sodium azide.
Source
Mouse, Monoclonal/IgG1, Kappa
Dilution rate
IHC-p 1:100-500. IF 1:50-200
Purification process
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse ascites by affinity-chromatography using specific immunogen.
Background
The protein encoded by this gene may play a role in the attachment of stem cells to the bone marrow extracellular matrix or to stromal cells. This single-pass membrane protein is highly glycosylated and phosphorylated by protein kinase C. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Function
alternative products:Both isoforms are expressed on the cell surface. CD34-T/CD34-F ratio increases with cell differentiation,developmental stage:On early hematopoietic progenitor cells.,disease:Abnormal CD34 expression in leukemogenesis.,function:Possible adhesion molecule with a role in early hematopoiesis by mediating the attachment of stem cells to the bone marrow extracellular matrix or directly to stromal cells. Could act as a scaffold for the attachment of lineage specific glycans, allowing stem cells to bind to lectins expressed by stromal cells or other marrow components. Presents carbohydrate ligands to selectins.,online information:CD34 entry,PTM:Highly glycosylated.,PTM:Phosphorylated on serine residues by PKC.,similarity:Belongs to the CD34 family.,tissue specificity:Selectively expressed on hematopoietic progenitor cells and the small vessel endothelium of a variety of tiss
