CD22 is a surface glycoprotein of B lymphocytes that is rapidly phosphorylated on cytoplasmic tyrosines after antigen receptor cross-linking. CD22 is a negative regulator of antigen receptor signaling whose onset of expression at the mature B cell stage may serve to raise the antigen concentration threshold required for B cell triggering. The human CD22 gene is expressed specifically in B lymphocytes and likely has an important function in cell-cell interactions. The B cell coreceptor CD22 plays an important role in regulating signal transduction via the B cell Ag receptor. CD22 is located within the band region q13.1 of chromosome 19.
Applications:
Suitable for use in Western Blot, Immunohistochemistry and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilutions:
Western Blot: 0.5-1ug/ml detects CD22 in cells and tissues.
Immunohistochemistry (FFPE/frozen): 0.5-1ug/ml detects CD22 in formalin fixed paraffin tissues and formalin or acetone fixed tissues.
Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
