Neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1), also known as CD56, is a membrane glycoprotein encoded by the NCAM1 gene and is widely recognized as a cell surface marker expressed on several immune and neural cell populations. CD56 Antibody for FACS (clone NCAM1/2217R) is designed for flow cytometry detection of NCAM1 and enables characterization of CD56-positive cells within heterogeneous cell suspensions. Flow cytometry analysis of CD56 is commonly used to identify natural killer cell populations and evaluate immune cell subsets based on surface marker expression.
CD56 NCAM antibody, also referred to as NCAM1 antibody or Neural cell adhesion molecule antibody in the literature, detects a cell adhesion molecule belonging to the immunoglobulin superfamily. Because NCAM1 is localized to the plasma membrane, CD56 Antibody for FACS allows researchers to measure cell surface expression levels on individual cells using fluorescence-based flow cytometry methods. This approach enables rapid identification and quantification of CD56-positive cells in peripheral blood mononuclear cell preparations and other mixed cell populations.
Flow cytometry is particularly well suited for evaluating cell surface markers such as NCAM1 because large numbers of individual cells can be analyzed for fluorescence intensity following antibody labeling. Using CD56 antibody staining, researchers can distinguish CD56-positive lymphocytes from other immune cell populations and assess shifts in expression under different biological conditions. CD56 is most prominently expressed on natural killer cells and subsets of activated T cells, making it a widely used marker for immune cell phenotyping and functional studies.
In addition to immune cells, NCAM1 expression has been reported in neural and neuroendocrine cell types where it participates in cell adhesion, migration, and intercellular signaling. Flow cytometry detection of NCAM1 can therefore also be applied in studies involving neural lineage cells, tumor-derived cell lines, or models investigating neuroendocrine differentiation. Measurement of CD56 expression provides insight into cell identity and functional state in a variety of experimental systems.
CD56 Antibody for FACS (clone NCAM1/2217R) enables detection of Neural cell adhesion molecule / NCAM1 on the cell surface in flow cytometry experiments. This recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody supports analysis of CD56-positive cell populations and provides a useful tool for research investigating immune cell phenotyping, NK cell markers, and NCAM-mediated cell adhesion mechanisms.
The optimal dilution of the CD56 antibody for FACS should be determined by the researcher.
1. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.
A full length recombinant human protein was used as the immunogen for this recombinant CD56 antibody.
Store the CD56 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20oC or colder (without azide).
