purity :
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
form :
Liquid containing glycerol; lyophilization may be available upon request.
storage stability :
Store at -20 degree C, for extended storage, conserve at -20 degree C or -80 degree C.
products description :
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.

uniprot summary :
CD68: 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. Belongs to the LAMP family. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Cell surface; Membrane protein, integral. Cellular Component: endosome; integral to membrane; lysosome; membrane; plasma membrane
