The CD56 antibody, clone NCAM16.2, is derived from the hybridization of P3-X63-Ag8.653 mouse myeloma cells with spleen cells isolated from BALB/c mice immunized with immunoaffinity-enriched NCAM from detergent extracts of adult human brain. The CD56 antibody recognizes a heavily glycosylated 140-kilodalton (kDa) isoform of NCAM, a member of the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. The CD56 antibody also recognizes 180-kDa and 120-kDa isoforms of NCAM found in neurons and muscle, respectively.
