Localization

Specificity

Recognizes a protein of 26kDa, identified as CD81 (Workshop VI; Code CD81.1)). CD81 has a very broad cellular distribution, being expressed on T- and B-lymphocytes, NK cells, thymocytes, eosinophils, fibroblasts, epithelial and endothelial cells. Neutrophils, erythrocytes and platelets are negative, while monocytes are variably positive. CD81 is a member of a family of tetraspans transmembrane proteins, including CD9, CD37, CD53, CD63, and CD82. It associates with CD19, CD21, Leu 13, and integrins on cell membrane and is involved in signal transduction in B lymphocyte development and cell adhesion. CD81 also acts as a receptor for the envelope protein E2 of chronic hepatitis C virus. Antibodies to CD81 have anti-proliferative effects on different lymphoid cell lines, particularly those derived from large cell lymphomas.

Background: CD81

CD81/TAPA-1 is an integral membrane protein expressed on a variety of cell types, and has a high degree of sequence homology between human and mouse. (1) CD81 is expressed on thymic stromal cells where it plays an important role in the transition of gamma delta + T cells to more mature T cells with alpha beta T cell receptors. (2) Immunohistochemical staining has revealed that its expression is localized to the subcapsular region of the thymus and, specifically, on cells that have distinct clustering patterns. It has been speculated that the ligand for CD81 is the pre-T cell receptor, which is composed of a TCR beta chain and glycoprotein pT alpha. (2) The monoclonal antibody 2F7 can block thymocyte interaction with CD81 in vitro. (2)
