This mouse monoclonal antibody was generated against whole HOON Pre-B Leukemic Cells and recognizes human Endoglin (CD105).
Endoglin (CD105) is a homodimeric integral membrane glycoprotein comprised of a 95 kDa subunit. Endoglin is a component of the Transforming Growth Factor beta (TGF-ß) receptor system that functions as an ancillary receptor influencing binding of the TGF-ß family of ligands to signaling receptors. Endoglin binds to TGF-ß1 and TGF-ß3 with high affinity, but does not bind TGF-ß2. Endoglin is expressed by vascular endothelial cells and syncytiotrophoblasts of placenta and is weakly expressed by stromalfibroblasts. Endoglin is also expressed by U937 cells and by activated macrophages. Endoglin expression is up-regulated on activated endothelium in tissues undergoing angiogenesis, such as in tumors, or in cases of wound healing or dermal inflammation.

Endoglin transiently expressed in COS-M6 cells binds TGF-beta 1.
COS-M6 cells were transfected with a cDNA encoding full-length endoglin (Endoglin) or control vector (C). Cells were affinity-labeled with 150 pM 125I-TGF-beta 1 and the detergent extracts incubated with mAb 44G4 followed by protein G-Sepharose. Immunoprecipitated proteins were analyzed by SDS-PAGE under reducing(R) and nonreducing (NR) conditions and visualized by autoradiography.
