Specificity
Specific for human CD85a (leucocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor, subfamily B, member 3/ LILRB3), also known as ILT-5, expressed by monocytes, dendritic cells, macrophages, subpopulation of T lymphocytes, B cells and at high levels on plasma cells. CD85a is a 631 amino acid type I transmembrane glycoprotein, which contains four immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motif (ITIM) sequences within a long cytoplasmic tail. Phosphorylation of the tyrosine residues within ITIMs is known to enable the binding and activation of protein tyrosine phosphatases, which act as cell signalling modulators and inhibitors of cell activation.
