InVivoMAb anti-mouse NKG2D (CD314)

CLONE CX5

The CX5 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse NKG2D, a type II transmembrane lectin-like glycoprotein also known as CD314. NKG2D is expressed on NK cells, NKT cells, CD8 T cells, γ/δ T cells, and macrophages. NKG2D has been implicated in anti-tumor surveillance, the immune response against viral infection, and in diabetes progression in NOD mice. Previous studies have shown that CX5 is a non-depleting antibody, which blocks binding of NKG2D to its ligands and mediates internalization of the receptor.
