Invitrogen™ CD200R Polyclonal Antibody

Description

In direct ELISAs and Western blots, less than 5% cross-reactivity with recombinant human CD200 R is observed. Reconstitute at 0.2 mg/mL in sterile PBS.

CD200R (OX2R) is a receptor for the OX-2 membrane glycoprotein, and both the receptor and substrate are cell surface glycoproteins containing two immunoglobulin-like domains. CD200R is restricted to the surfaces of myeloid lineage cells and the receptor-substrate interaction may function as a myeloid downregulatory signal. In mouse, CD200R is expressed primarily by peripheral blood monocytes and neutophils but also by other leucocytes including T-lymphocytes and mast cells. Further mouse studies of a gene related to CD200R suggests that the receptor may control myeloid function in a tissue-specific manner. Alternative splicing of CD200R results in multiple transcript variants. Diseases associated with CD200R dysfunction include primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy.
