This protein has a molecular mass of approximately 50-55 kDa. CD2 plays a critical role in facilitating cell-cell adhesion and signal transduction. It serves as a receptor for the CD58 ligand on antigen-presenting cells supporting the interaction between T-cells and these cells. By enhancing adhesion CD2 contributes to the formation of the immunological synapse necessary for effective immune response.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe functioning of CD2 helps in the modulation of immune responses and T-cell activation. CD2 participates in signal transduction leading to cytokine production and proliferation. It is associated with the immunological synapse complex working closely with other surface molecules like Lck and CD3 to promote T-cell responses. This collaboration is vital for the development and function of immune cells driving adaptive immunity.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCD2 engages in pathways integral to T-cell activation and signal transduction. A well-known pathway involving CD2 is the TCR (T-cell Receptor) signaling pathway where it partners with CD3 to initiate T-cell activation. Additionally CD2 influences the LAT (Linker for Activation of T-cells) pathway contributing to downstream signaling cascades that involve various signaling proteins such as Lck and ZAP-70 ensuring proper T-cell function.\u003cbr\u003e\nCD2 shows connections to autoimmune diseases and cancers. For instance its involvement in abnormal T-cell activation links CD2 to autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Also various leukemias demonstrate altered CD2 expression suggesting a role in cancer pathogenesis. Through these disease states CD2's interaction with the CD58 protein becomes critical as this interaction affects the activity of T-cells in the disease milieu influencing disease progression and treatment outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843831451817,"sku":"ab307478","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab307478","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
