Immunogen

Recombinant human Aminopeptidase N/CD13 protein (Uniprot: P15144)

Localization

Cell Surface

Specificity

This monoclonal antibody recognizes an extracellular epitope of an integral membrane glycoprotein of 150kDa, identified as CD13. This antigen is present on most cells of myeloid origin including granulocytes, monocytes, mast cells, and GM-progenitor cells. It is also expressed by the majority of AML, CML in myeloid blast crisis, and in a smaller fraction of lymphoid leukemias. It is absent from normal lymphocytes, platelets and erythrocytes. CD13 is also present on fibroblasts; endothelial cells, epithelial cells from renal proximal tubules and intestinal brush border, bone marrow stromal cells, osteoclasts, and cells lining bile duct canaliculi. CD13 is identical to aminopeptidase N (APN), a prominent membrane-bound metalloprotease present on the surface of intestinal brush border and renal tubules. CD13 plays a role in metabolism of biologically active peptides, in phagocytosis, and in bactericidal/tumoricidal activities. It also serves as a receptor for human coronaviruses (HCV). The lineage-restricted pattern of expression of CD13 within the hemopoietic compartment suggests that it may be important in myeloid cell differentiation.

Background: Aminopeptidase N/CD13

Alanine aminopeptidase (CD13) is expressed on the majority of peripheral blood monocytes and granulocytes. CD13 is also expressed by the majority of acute myeloid leukemias, chronic myeloid leukemias in myeloid blast crisis, a smaller percentage of lymphoid leukemias and myeloid cell lines. CD13 is also found in several types of non hematopoietic cells such as fibroblasts and endothelial cells and in a soluble form in blood plasma. CD13 is not expressed on B cells, T cells, platelets or erythrocytes. In the mouse, CD13 is a non-covalently linked homodimer of approximately 150kD subunits expressed by a variety of cells including monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cell and veiled cells. CD13 plays a role in biologically active peptide metabolism, in the control of growth and differentiation, in phagocytosis and in bactericidal/tumoricidal activities. CD13 also serves as a receptor for human coronaviruses.

CD13 is commonly used as a biomarker to detect damage to the kidneys, and that may be used to help diagnose certain kidney disorders. Therefore, CD13 antibodies are useful tools for cancer and renal disorder research.
