CD55 (Decay-accelarating factor/DAF) is a glycoprotein member of the RCA family of molecules. It is found on blood cells, epithelium and endothelium and serves both as a receptor for CD97 and a negative regulator of the C3 convertases, C4b2a and C3bBb. Mature mouse CD55 is the product of two genes that arose by duplication. There is a 55-60 kDa, 356 amino acid (aa), GPI-linked form that is ubiquitously expressed. This molecule contains four SUSHI domains (aa 35-285), a Ser/Thr-rich region (aa 288-362) and a GPI-anchor at Gly362. There is also a 50 kDa, 379 aa, type I transmembrane form that is testis-associated. It shows the same domain architecture and is 93% aa identical to the GPI-form. At least four GPI gene isoforms exist. They diverge after Ile285 and show deletions and substitutions. Over aa 35-359, mouse CD55 is 66% and 50% aa identical to rat and human CD55, respectively.

Scientific Data Images for Mouse CD55/DAF Antibody
Detection of Mouse CD55/DAF by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of mouse spleen tissue and mouse splenocytes. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Sheep Anti-Mouse CD55/DAF Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5376) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF016). A specific band was detected for CD55/DAF at approximately 75 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing and non-reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Detection of CD55/DAF in Mouse Splenocytes by Flow Cytometry.
Mouse splenocytes were stained with Sheep Anti-Mouse CD55/DAF Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF5376, filled histogram) or control antibody (Catalog # 5-001-A, open histogram), followed by NorthernLights™ 637-conjugated Anti-Sheep IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # NL011).

Values are means ± SD, from triplicate experiments performed 4 times, n = 12. (B) The amounts of CD14 in supernatants from RAW 264 cells treated for one hour with control medium (□) or glimepiride as shown (■). Values are means ± SD, from triplicate experiments performed 4 times, n = 12. (C) Immunoblots showing the amounts of CD14, PrPC, CD55 and caveolin in extracts from RAW 264 cells treated for 1 hour with control medium (i) or 5 μM glimepiride (ii). (D) The amounts of CD14 in cells (□) or supernatants (■) from microglial cells treated for 1 hour with control medium, 5 μM glimepiride or 5 μM glipizide. Values are mean units CD14 ± SD, from triplicate experiments performed 3 times, n = 9. *Cellular CD14 significantly less than control cells. **supernatant CD14 significantly greater than control supernatants.
