Background: CD133, also known as Prominin, was first described as a cell surface marker recognized by monoclonal antibody AC133 on putative hematopoietic stem cells. Subsequent cDNA cloning indicated that CD133 is a five-transmembrane protein with a predicted molecular weight of 97 kDa. Due to heavy glycosylation, its apparent molecular weight is 130 kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis. Besides blood stem cells, CD133 is expressed on and used to isolate other stem cells, including cancer stem cells. A deletion mutation in CD133 produces aberrant protein localization and may result in retinal degeneration in humans.

Purification and Purity: The antibody was purified by immunogen affinity chromatography.
