Anti-CD148/DEP-1 Antibody, clone Ab1 (Azide Free)

CD148, also known as Density-enhanced phosphatase 1 (DEP-1), is a membrane bound phosphatase that dephosphorylates a large number of protein targets and kinases thus serving as a regulator of many signaling cascades. CD148/DEP-1 plays a role in cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation. CD148/DEP-1 also plays a role in macrophage migration, adhesion and spreading. CD148/DEP-1 is also central to T-cell receptor signaling and acts as a negative regulator. CD148/DEP-1 acts as a positive regulator of endothelial cell survival and enhances the barrier function of epithelial junctions during reassembly. CD148/DEP-1 is also a key regulator of platelet activation and thrombosis as well as a tumor suppressor. CD148/DEP-1 is localized at the cell membrane particularly at cell projections, ruffle membranes, and cell junctions and it is expressed in lymphocytes and epithelial cells and expression increases as cell density increases.

~260 kDa observed.
This protein is highly glycosylated and may run higher than the calculated molecular weight of 146 kDa (isoform 1) or 57 kDa (isoform 2). Uncharacterized bands may be observed in some lysates.
