CD197 (CCR7) Mouse anti-Human, V450, Clone: 150503, BD, Mouse Monoclonal Antibody, Each

Details

The monoclonal antibody 150503 specifically binds to the human CC chemokine receptor, CCR7, also known as CD197. CCR7 (previously known as BLR2, EBI1 and CMKBR7), a seven-transmembrane, G-protein-coupled receptor, is the specific receptor for CC chemokines, MIP-3β/Exodus 3/ELC/ CCL19 and 6Ckine/Exodus 2/SLC/TCA4/CCL21. CCR7 mRNA is expressed mainly in lymphoid tissues including spleen, lymph nodes and tonsil. CCR7 is expressed on peripheral T and B lymphocytes, by bone marrow and cord blood CD34-positive cells and by mature dendritic cells. Differential CCR7 expression can be used to distinguish naive, central memory and effector memory T cell subsets. The human CCR7 gene, unlike other CC chemokine receptor genes, has been mapped to chromosome 17 (region 17q12).
