Designing a Western blot for CD58? The guide has the expected band size, antibodies backed by real blot images, the controls to run alongside, and protocols taken from published papers.
Open the CD58 Western Blot GuideFacts about Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3.
Ligand of the T-lymphocyte CD2 glycoprotein.
This interaction is important in mediating thymocyte interactions with thymic epithelial cells, antigen-independent and -dependent interactions of T-lymphocytes with target cells and antigen- presenting cells and the T-lymphocyte rosetting with erythrocytes.In addition, the LFA-3/CD2 interaction may prime response by both the CD2+ and LFA-3+ cells. .
