CD34 Antibodies

Human Gene ID: 947

Description: The protein encoded by this gene may play a role in the attachment of stem cells to the bone marrow extracellular matrix or to stromal cells. This single-pass membrane protein is highly glycosylated and phosphorylated by protein kinase C. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Mouse Gene ID: 12490

Enables sulfate binding activity. Acts upstream of or within leukocyte migration. Located in cytoplasm; external side of plasma membrane; and extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; and skin. Orthologous to human CD34 (CD34 molecule).

Human UniProt ID: P28906

Function: Possible adhesion molecule with a role in early hematopoiesis by mediating the attachment of stem cells to the bone marrow extracellular matrix or directly to stromal cells. Could act as a scaffold for the attachment of lineage specific glycans, allowing stem cells to bind to lectins expressed by stromal cells or other marrow components. Presents carbohydrate ligands to selectins.

Molecular Function: Cell adhesion

Subcellular location: Membrane

kDa: 41
