CD81 antigen isoform 1, also known as CD81, is part of the tetraspanin family. CD81 interacts directly with immunoglobulin superfamily member 8 (IGSF8, CD316) and CD36. In B cells, CD81 is part of a complex with CD21, CD19 and Leu13. Furthermore, this complex decreases the threshold for B cell activation through B cell receptors by linking Ag specific recognition and CD21 mediator recognition. While on T cells CD81 connects with CD4 and CD8 and provides a costimulatory signal with CD3.
CD81 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 331 amino acids (113-201a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 37.0kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 40-57kDa).
CD81 is expressed with a 242 amino acid hIgG-His-tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
