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.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCD208 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.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCD208 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.\u003cbr\u003e\nCD208 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46844243968169,"sku":"ab281573","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab281573","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
