Immunogen
CD68 antibody was raised in Rabbit using a synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence in the middle region of Mouse CD68, different from the related rat sequence by one amino acid, as the immunogen
Post-Translational Modifications
CD68 is N- and O-glycosylated. Glycosylation occurs at Asn88, Asn96, Asn118, Asn126, Asn164, Asn199, Asn246, Asn261 and Asn279.
Expression
CD68 is highly expressed by blood monocytes and tissue macrophages. It is also expressed in lymphocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. CD268 is located in the Lysosome membrane and the cellular membrane of most mammalian cells.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 4 degree C for short term storage. For long term storage aliquot and store at -20 degree C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Related Product Information for anti-CD68 antibody
Description: CD68 belongs to the LAMP family of proteins. It is composed of 354 amino acids with a molecular weight of 37408 Da. There is a Macrosialin chain at amino acids 22 - 354 and a Mucin-like region at aa 23 - 140.
Biological Significance: CD68 is a glycoprotein which binds to low density lipoprotein. It could play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracellular cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. CD68 binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins, allowing homing of macrophage subsets to particular sites. Rapid recirculation of CD68 from endosomes and lysosomes to the plasma membrane may allow macrophages to crawl over selectin-bearing substrates or other cells.
Implications In Disease: CD68 expression in many tumor cell lines could allow tumors to attach to selectins on vascular endothelium, facilitating their dissemination to secondary sites. The presence of CD68 in macrophages also makes it useful in identifying conditions related to proliferation or abnormality of these cells, such as malignant histiocytosis, histiocytic lymphoma, and Gaucher's disease.

Product Notes
The CD68 (Catalog #AAA225763) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's CD68 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, IHC (Immunohistochemistry), IHC (Immunohistochemistry), WB (Western Blot). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CD68 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CD68, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
