Additional Information Regarding the Antigen
Gene | CD68 |
Protein | Macrosialin |
Uniprot ID | P31996 |
Function | Could play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracellular cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. Binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins, allowing homing of macrophage subsets to particular sites. Rapid recirculation of CD68 from endosomes and lysosomes to the plasma membrane may allow macrophages to crawl over selectin-bearing substrates or other cells. |
Tissue Specificity | Expressed in tissue macrophages and to a lesser extent in dendritic cells. |
Sub-cellular localization | Isoform Long: Endosome membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Lysosome membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. |
Sequence Similarities | Belongs to the LAMP family. |
