Cluster Of Differentiation 2 (CD2)
[Edit]LFA2; SRBC; T11; T-Cell Surface Antigen T11/Leu-5; LFA-3 Receptor; Lymphocyte Function Associated Antigen 2; Erythrocyte Receptor; Rosette Receptor; Sheep Red Blood Cell Receptor
CD2 (cluster of differentiation 2) is a cell adhesion molecule found on the surface of T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. It has also been called T-cell surface antigen T11/Leu-5, LFA-2, LFA-3 receptor, erythrocyte receptor and rosette receptor.
It interacts with other adhesion molecules, such as lymphocyte function-associated antigen-3 (LFA-3/CD58) in humans, or CD48 in rodents, which are expressed on the surfaces of other cells. In addition to its adhesive properties, CD2 also acts as a co-stimulatory molecule on T and NK cells.
Due to its structural characteristics, CD2 is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily; it possesses two immunoglobulin-like domains in its extracellular portion.
