C-type lectin domain family 4 member K (CD207)
Links to databases
C-type lectin domain family 4 member K (CD207), also known as Langerin, is a type II transmembrane, C-type lectin receptor expressed in the immature dendritic cells of the epidermis and mucosa (Langerhans cells). This protein exhibits calcium-dependent, mannose-binding specificity and is involved in the routing or processing of antigen for presentation to T cells. It is believed to protect against human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection. Low incidences of CD207-positive cells have been observed in basal cell carcinomas.
Sample type
Recommended sample types are EDTA plasma and serum. A range of additional sample types are compatible with the technology (PEA), including citrate plasma, heparin plasma, cerebrospinal fluid, (CSF), tissue and cell lysates, fine needle biopsis, microdialysis fluid, cell culture media, dried blood spots, synovial fluid, saliva, plaque extract and microvesicles. Please note that protein expression levels are expected to vary in different sample types. Certain assays are differentially affected by interfering substances such as hemolysate.

Analytical Measuring Range
Please note: the technical data reported below refers to the measured value in the in vitro validation assays. The calibrator curve below shows the performance of the assay with the estimated sensitivity and dynamic range parameters indicated. These curves are generated during the assay validation process using recombinant antigens. Please note that when analyzing biological samples the data generated will be given in the form of relative quantification (NPX values) and cannot be converted to absolute protein concentrations. For more info about NPX measurements, please visit our FAQ page (https://www.olink.com/question/what-is-npx).
