Product details:
Human CD208 (LAMP3) SimpleStep ELISA® kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of CD208 (LAMP3) protein in Serum, Cit Plasma, Cell culture supernatant. Quantitate Human CD208 (LAMP3) with 9.514 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA
technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA
plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA
protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA
technology provides several benefits:
-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples

The protein CD208 also known as DC-LAMP or LAMP-3 is integral to the immune system. It has an approximate mass of 60 kDa. CD208 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein found mainly in the endosomal/lysosomal compartments of dendritic cells. The expression of CD208 is upregulated during the maturation of dendritic cells making it a reliable marker for these immune cells. Researchers often use CD208 to study dendritic cell biology and its role in immune responses.
Biological function summary
CD208 participates in the regulation of the immune response by facilitating antigen processing and presentation. This protein is a part of the lysosomal-associated membrane protein family which contributes to the recycling of MHC class II molecules. Through its involvement in the endocytic pathway CD208 aids in presenting antigens to T lymphocytes an important step in triggering adaptive immunity. The protein colocalizes with MHC class II which is essential for effective antigen presentation.
Pathways
CD208 has a significant role in the endosomal-lysosomal pathway where it interacts with other proteins involved in antigen processing. It also engages in the intracellular trafficking pathway that affects the presentation of peptides on MHC class II molecules. The interaction with proteins such as HLA-DR is vital for efficient antigen presentation to helper T cells. CD208 supports the proper delivery of peptide-loaded MHC molecules to the cell surface a necessity for a functional adaptive immune response.
CD208 has implications in autoimmune diseases and infectious diseases. Its expression is notably altered in conditions like lupus and certain infectious diseases. In systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) abnormal CD208 expression correlates with the dysregulation of immune responses. Additionally during infectious diseases changes in CD208 expression can impact the activation and function of dendritic cells affecting disease progression. The interaction of CD208 with proteins like MHC class II molecules highlights its role in disease pathology and immune regulation.
