Background InformationCD68 is highly glycosylated lysosomal membrane protein with an Mr of 110,000. The CD68 protein belongs to a family of lysosomal glycoprotein (LGP)/plasma membrane shuttling proteins that play a role in endocytosis and/or lysosomal trafficking. CD68 is expressed strongly in cytoplasmic granules, and weakly on the surface of macrophages, monocytes, neutrophils, basophils, and NK cells. CD68 can also be found in the cytoplasm of non-hematopoietic tissues, especially the liver, and renal glomeruli, and tubules (Goyert, 1997).

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes a 110-kD transmembrane glycoprotein that is highly expressed by human monocytes and tissue macrophages. It is a member of the lysosomal/endosomal-associated membrane glycoprotein (LAMP) family. The protein primarily localizes to lysosomes and endosomes with a smaller fraction circulating to the cell surface. It is a type I integral membrane protein with a heavily glycosylated extracellular domain and binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins. The protein is also a member of the scavenger receptor family. Scavenger receptors typically function to clear cellular debris, promote phagocytosis, and mediate the recruitment and activation of macrophages. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcripts encoding different isoforms.
Purification MethodProtein A Purfied
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryCould play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and extracellular cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. Binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins, allowing homing of macrophage subsets to particular sites. Rapid recirculation of CD68 from endosomes and lysosomes to the plasma membrane may allow macrophages to crawl over selectin-bearing substrates or other cells.

Highly expressed by blood monocytes and tissue macrophages. Also expressed in lymphocytes, fibroblasts and endothelial cells. Expressed in many tumor cell lines which could allow them to attach to selectins on vascular endothelium, facilitating their dissemination to secondary sites.
