CD48, also known as BLAST-1 or SLAMF2, serves as a critical cell surface glycoprotein within the signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family, playing essential roles in lymphocyte adhesion, activation, and immune cell communication. As a ligand for CD2 and 2B4, CD48 participates in the regulation of T cell and natural killer cell responses, making it a valuable target for researchers investigating immune cell interactions, lymphocyte biology, and hematological malignancies.
This recombinant monoclonal antibody, clone 7E1, offers the consistency and reliability that demanding immunology research requires. Developed using recombinant technology with a sequence-defined rabbit IgG format, this antibody eliminates the lot-to-lot variability that can compromise longitudinal studies and reproducibility. The defined sequence ensures that your experimental conditions remain stable across projects, allowing for meaningful comparisons between datasets generated months or years apart.
Validated for Western blot and ELISA applications, this antibody demonstrates robust performance in detecting CD48 in human samples. Western blot analysis of Daudi whole cell lysate, a well-characterized B-lymphoblastoid cell line, reveals specific detection at approximately 45 kDa. While the predicted molecular weight based on the amino acid sequence is 28 kDa, the observed higher molecular weight is consistent with the extensive glycosylation characteristic of CD48 as a GPI-anchored membrane protein. Effective working dilutions range from 1:500 to 1:5000 for Western blot, providing flexibility to optimize signal intensity for your specific experimental conditions.
This antibody supports investigations into B cell activation, immune checkpoint biology, and lymphoma research where understanding CD48 expression and function remains central to advancing therapeutic development.
