Background
CD43, also named leukosialin, sialophorin, galactoglycoprotein, leukocyte sialoglycoprotein, SPN, and is a mucin-like type I transmembrane protein. In humans, it is expressed in haematopoietic cells, including T lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, natural killer cells, platelets, and haematopoietic stem cells, with the exception of mature erythrocytes and B cell subpopulations. CD43 can both induce and protect against apoptosis, and can either promote or block cell adhesion. The unglycosylated form of CD43 migrates on SDS-PAGE with a molecular weight of 54 kDa (PMID: 2943740), whereas CD43 from different haematopoietic cell lines displays increased molecular weights since it is glycosylated with O-linked chains that differ in core structure and sialylation.
