Anti-Hu CD93 Purified

CD93 (also known as C1qR1) is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein containing extracellular N-terminal C-type lectin domain and five EGF-like domains, and an intracellular tail interacting with moesin, a protein known to play a role in linking transmembrane proteins to the cytoskeleton and in the remodelling of the cytoskeleton. CD93 was reported to serve as a receptor for complement component C1q, but this function has not been fully elucidated yet. CD93 is involved in intercellular adhesion and in the clearance of apoptotic cells.
