Rat Anti-Lysosome Associated Membrane Protein 2 (LAMP 2, Igp2, Igp110, CD107b, LAMP2C, LAMPB, Lysosome Associated Membrane Glycoprotein 2 Precursor, MAC3)

Murine CD107b, also known as MAC-3 and LAMP-2, is a transmembrane glycoprotein that is associated with lysosomal membranes and is primarily expressed on mononuclear phagocytes. Expression of CD107b does vary between cell populations and the molecular weight of CD107b can vary between 92-120kD. Studies suggest that CD107b may be involved in leukocyte adhesion.
