CD59 binds to complement components C8 and C9, preventing C9 polymerization and insertion into membranes, therefore inhibiting the complement-dependent cytolysis (CDC) (1). CD59 is a ubiquitously expressed cell membrane protein that protects cells from CDC. Rare cases of CD59 deficiency have been reported to cause paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria in human patients (2,3). Expression of CD59 on tumor cells and viral infected cells makes them resist antibody-dependent complement-mediated lysis. Potent inhibitors for CD59 have been actively pursued for therapeutic applications (4,5). In addition, CD59 may regulate insulin secretion by modulating exocytosis (6).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\n16.3A5; 1F5; 1F5 antigen; 20 kDa homologous restriction factor; CD59; CD59 antigen; CD59 antigen p18-20 (antigen identified by monoclonal antibodies 16.3A5, EJ16, EJ30, EL32 and G344); CD59 blood group antigen; CD59 glycoprotein; CD59 molecule (CD59 blood group); CD59 molecule, complement regulatory protein; EJ16; EJ30; EL32; FLJ38134; FLJ92039; G344; HRF-20; HRF20; human leukocyte antigen MIC11; Ly-6-like protein; lymphocytic antigen CD59\/MEM43; MAC-inhibitory protein; MAC-IP; MACIF; MEM43; MEM43 antigen; membrane attack complex (MAC) inhibition factor; Membrane attack complex inhibition factor; Membrane inhibitor of reactive lysis; MGC2354; MIC11; MIN1; MIN2; MIN3; MIRL; MSK21; p18-20; Protectin; surface anitgen recognized by monoclonal antibody 16.3A5; T cell-activating protein\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 18\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46797894549673,"sku":"25393T","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-25393t","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
