Scientific Data Images for Human CD21 Antibody

Detection of CD21 in Human Tonsil.

CD21 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of Human Tonsil using Mouse Anti-Human CD21 Monoclonal Antibody (Catalog # MAB49091) at 5 µg/mL for 1 hour at room temperature followed by incubation with the Anti-Mouse IgG VisUCyte™ HRP Polymer Antibody (Catalog # VC001). Before incubation with the primary antibody, tissue was subjected to heat-induced epitope retrieval using VisUCyte Antigen Retrieval Reagent-Basic (Catalog # VCTS021). Tissue was stained using DAB (brown) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). Specific staining was localized to cell membrane in lymphocytes.

Background: CD21

CD21 (also called EBV receptor or CR2) is a 145 kDa member of the RCA (receptors of complement activation) family of proteins. It is expressed on T cells, B cells, and follicular dendritic cells. On the B cell surface, it combines with the BCR and CD19 to form a B cell activating complex. Mature human CD21 is 1013 amino acids (aa) in length. It is a type I transmembrane (TM) protein that contains a 951 aa extracellular domain (ECD) (aa 21-971) and a short 34 aa cytoplasmic tail. The ECD exhibits fifteen 60 aa SUSHI repeats. Soluble CD21 can be generated by cleavage near the TM domain. One potential splice variant shows a deletion of aa 847‑908, while another shows an insertion of 59 aa after Lys659. The ECD of human CD21 shares 71% aa identity with mouse CD21 ECD.
