CD47 Recombinant Protein (Human)

General Information about CD47 Recombinant Protein

CD47 (Cluster of Differentiation 47), also known as the integrin associated protein (IAP), is a transmembrane protein which is encoded by the CD47 gene in humans. CD47 belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and binds to membrane integrins, as well as thrombospondin 1 (TSP-1) ligands and ? signal regulatory protein (SIRP?).
CD47 is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including apoptosis, proliferation, adhesion, and migration. In addition, it plays a key role in immune and angiogenic reactions. CD47 is commonly expressed in human cells and has been shown to overexpress in many different tumor cells. It is also expressed in assorted cranial tumors.
CD47 is a membrane receptor with an extracellular N-terminal IgV domain, five transmembrane domains, and a short, C-terminal intracellular tail.
