DC-SIGN/DC-SIGNR Antibody (19F7) is a mouse monoclonal IgG2b antibody that detects DC-SIGN/DC-SIGNR in human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and immunofluorescence (IF). DC-SIGN, also known as CD209, is a type II membrane protein predominantly expressed on dendritic cells, playing a crucial role in the immune response by mediating the interaction between dendritic cells and T cells. This interaction is vital for initiating adaptive immunity, particularly in the context of viral infections such as HIV-1, where DC-SIGN captures the virus and facilitates its transfer to T cells in lymphoid tissues, thereby enhancing viral dissemination. Additionally, DC-SIGNR, or CD209L, shares 77% sequence identity with DC-SIGN and is expressed on sinusoidal endothelial cells, where DC-SIGNR binds to the E2 glycoproteins of the hepatitis C virus, highlighting DC-SIGNR′s importance in viral pathogenesis and immune evasion. Anti-DC-SIGN/DC-SIGNR antibody (19F7) is an essential tool for researchers studying the mechanisms of immune cell interactions and viral infections, providing insights into potential therapeutic targets and strategies.
