• Species Reactivity

  Human

• Specificity

  Detects human ICAM‑3/CD50 in Western blots. ICAM‑3/CD50 was found not to recognize CHO cells expressing the human ICAM-1 protein. ICAM‑3/CD50 was found to recognize CHO cells expressing the human ICAM-3 protein. The epitope for ICAM‑3/CD50 is located on domain 4 of the human ICAM-3 molecule.

Background: ICAM-3/CD50

Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-3 (ICAM-3, CD50), a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, binds the leukocyte integrins LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18) and alpha _d/ beta ₂.
ICAM‑3 is expressed on leukocytes and epidermal Langerhans cells. It may play an important role in T cell stimulation by Langerhans cells. ICAM-3 has not been identified in the mouse.
