Background:

CD1A is a type 1 cell surface transmembrane glycoprotein structurally similar to MHC Class 1 that is expressed in association with β2-microglobulin. CD1A is a member of the CD1 family and has been shown to mediate the presentation of primary lipid and glycolipid antigens to T cell lymphocytes for recognition. It is expressed by Langerhans’ cells, cortical double positive and single positive thymocytes, and by interdigitating dendritic cells. CD1A has been shown to identify T cell development.

Specificity:

Recognizes endogenous levels of CD1a protein.

Alternative names:

T-cell surface glycoprotein CD1a; T-cell surface antigen T6/Leu-6; hTa1 thymocyte antigen; CD1a
