Description
The 5H10 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to mouse CD209a, or CIRE, which is the most closely related homolog of human DC-SIGN. In the mouse, several homologs of human CD209 (DC-SIGN) have been described. CD209a is a 238-amino acid type-II transmembrane C-type lectin, with an extracellular carbohydrate recognition domain. It can bind to mannosylated ligands in a Ca++ dependent manner. CD209a is expressed by some conventional CD4+ and CD4-CD8- dendritic cells (DC) but not by CD8+ DC. It is also expressed on monocytes, splenic plasmacytoid pre-DC, macrophages, and resident peritoneal cells. CD209a expression is downregulated upon cellular activation. CD209a is thought to play a role in the internalization and presentation of antigens to initiate immune responses.
