  1. The CD system is commonly used as cell markers in immunophenotyping, allowing cells to be defined based on what molecules are present on their surface. These markers are often used to associate cells with certain immune functions.

Where is the Rh marker found?

The Rh marker can be found on the surface of red blood cells. It is a protein located on the cell membrane that determines whether an individual is Rh positive or Rh negative.


What is another name for cell surface markers?

It marks what goes in the cell and what comes out if the marker sense that its not part of the cell then it attacks whatever it is.


What is e difference between receptor proteins and marker proteins?

receptor protein and marker protein are differente''marker protein have cell surface marker that act as name together, the identification of different types of cells and the receptor proteins transfer information from the outside of the cell to the inside receptor proteins are like boulders that how it's difference.


What does Pan stands for in Pan b cell marker?

Pan stands for "pancreatic" in Pan b cell marker, indicating that the marker is specific to pancreatic B cells. This marker helps researchers or clinicians identify and study these particular cells in pancreatic tissues or samples.


What is the function of a cell's surface marker?

A protein marker is just that - a marker for specific proteins. This usually deals with running an experiment (assay) to determine the presence, absence, and with some markers, abundance of a specific protein. For example, you can use a protein marker to mark an extracellular protein such as a Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on bacteria. The marker would specifically bind to LPS, and induce some type of visual response, IE a color change for example. Purely hypothetical, you could add some LPS marker to bacteria which you are questioning to have LPS on their cell surface. After addition of a colormetric marker, you could use ultraviolent light to see color changes in the places where LPS is present. Likewise, if there wasnt any protein present (LPS in this example), then there would be no color change and the cells would look normal as if nothing happened.

What do marker proteins do in the process of cell identification and communication?

Marker proteins play a crucial role in cell identification and communication by serving as unique identifiers on the cell surface. These proteins help cells recognize and interact with one another, allowing for proper communication and coordination within the body.

Can you use marker ink for dye?

no you cant because the marker ink will wear off onto the surface of a desk or so on.


A marker molecule on a cell that the immune system uses to recognize a pathogen?

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules are marker molecules on cells that the immune system uses to recognize pathogens. MHC molecules present fragments of pathogens on the cell surface to alert immune cells to the presence of the pathogen. This helps the immune system to target and eliminate infected cells.


How are viruses highly specific to the cell they infect?

The protein capsid of the virus will only fit in a protein marker of a certain cell with that marker, which creates specificity to the cell they infect. For this reason, a virus that is harmful to a plant may be harmless to humans.


What is the purpose of a carbohydrate chain?

The chain is attached with a marker protein, and together the chain and marker protein help identify the cell to other nearby cells.
