Preparation and Storage

Background: CD43

CD43, also known as Leukosialin and Sialophorin and Ly-48 in mouse, is a 100-105 kDa type I transmembrane sialylated mucin that is expressed on most leukocytes and some tumor cells. Notably, the membrane expression of CD43 seems to be a characteristic of leukocytes, while cytoplasmic expression without membrane insertion occurs in endothelium and select epithelia. While CD43 restricts leukocyte adhesion and modulates T cell activation, these activities are context specific. CD43 can both induce and protect against apoptosis, and can either promote or block cell adhesion. Mature CD43 shows 49% amino (aa) sequence identity between human and mouse.
