| Host organism | Mouse (Mus musculus) |
| Species reactivity | Due to limited knowledge and inability for testing each and every species, the reactivity of the antibody may extend to other species which are not listed hereby, Human (Homo sapiens) |
| Specificity and cross-reactivity | CD2 is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is expressed on peripheral blood T lymphocytes, CD2/CD58 binding can enhance antigen-specific T cell activation, CD58 is a heavily glycosylated protein with a broad tissue distribution in hematopoietic and other cells, Interaction between CD2 and its counter receptor LFA3 (CD58) on opposing cells optimizes immune system recognition, NK cells and thymocytes, Since it is not possible to test each and every species our knowledge on the corss reactivity of the antibodies is limited, This particular antibody might cross react with speacies outside of the listed ones, as well as between cytolytic effectors and target cells, including endothelium, thereby facilitating communication between helper T lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells, CD2 interacts through its amino-terminal domain with the extracellular domain of CD58 (also designated CD2 ligand) to mediate cell adhesion |
