Overview
CD173 (blood group antigen H2) is a fucosylated saccharide (Fuc-alpha-1-2-Gal-beta-1-4-GlcNAc-beta) generated by beta-D-galactoside 2-alpha-L-fucosyltransferase (FUT1) . CD173 belongs to markers of early hematopoiesis; it is expressed mainly on CD34-positive hematopoietic progenitor cells. CD173 is a precursor structure of CD174 (Lewis Y) and is also structurally related to CD15 (Lewis X) . On endothelial cells CD173 and CD174 are concentrated on pseudopodial extensions responsible for initial contacts between endothelial cells.
Specificity:
The antibody MEM-195 reacts with CD173 (H2), an extracellular saccharide antigen expressed mainly during early hematopoiesis; it is also expressed on endothelial cells.
