YFC118.3 was clustered at the Fourth International Workshop on Leucocyte Differentiation Antigen as recognising the CD18 antigen. The main cellular reactivity of antibody YFC 118.3 is a strong reactivity with Leucocytes (platelets negative). YFC118.3 blocks homotypic adhesion and other lymphocyte functions which involve the LFA-1 antigen.

Sujet
The CD18 antigen is an integral membrane glycoprotein of 95kD molecular weight - known as the b chain, of the LFA-1 complex. The CD18 antigen is non-covalently linked to CD11a, b, c molecules. The CD18 Molecule is the receptor for ICAM-1 and is thus important for cell adhesion.Synonyms: 95 subunit beta, Cell surface adhesion glycoproteins LFA-1/CR3/p150, Complement receptor C3 subunit beta, Integrin beta-2, MFI7
