Recombinant Human CD131 / CSF2RB / IL3RB / IL5RB protein (Catalog#10516-H08H)
Preparation
This antibody was produced from a hybridoma resulting from the fusion of a mouse myeloma with B cells obtained from a mouse immunized with purified, recombinant Human CD131 / CSF2RB / IL3RB / IL5RB (rh CD131 / CSF2RB / IL3RB / IL5RB; Catalog#10516-H08H; NP_000386.1; Met1-Trp443). The IgG fraction of the cell culture supernatant was purified by Protein A affinity chromatography.

Flow cytometric analysis of Human CSF2RB(CD131) expression on TF-1 cells. Cells were stained with purified anti-Human CSF2RB(CD131), then a PE-conjugated second step antibody. The histogram were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells.

Colony stimulating factor 2 receptor, beta, low-affinity (CSF2RB) also known as CD131 antigen (CD131), cytokine receptor common subunit beta, GM-CSF/IL-3/IL-5 receptor common beta-chain, interleukin 3 receptor/granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor 3 receptor, beta (IL3RB), is the common beta chain of the high affinity receptor for IL-3, IL-5 and CSF. Defects in this protein have been reported to be associated with protein alveolar proteinosis (PAP). CD131 belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family. The cluster of differentiation (cluster of designation) (often abbreviated as CD) is a protocol used for the identification and investigation of cell surface molecules present on white blood cells initially but found in almost any kind of cell of the body, providing targets for immunophenotyping of cells. Defects in CD131/CSF2RB are the cause of pulmonary surfactant metabolism dysfunction type 5 (SMDP5). SMDP5 is a rare lung disorder due to impaired surfactant homeostasis. It is characterized by alveolar filling with floccular material that stains positive using the periodic acid-Schiff method and is derived from surfactant phospholipids and protein components. Excessive lipoproteins accumulation in the alveoli results in severe respiratory distress.
