Important CD #s to remember

Does anyone have a good list of important Cluster Designations to know. I can't seem to find a one. Thanx.

CD3,4,5,8,19,20,23,10,TdT,B7,80,86,40,41,38,138,79 a,Throw in PAX5 and TRAP as well. That's off of top of my head I would consider most important.

Well, 3,4,8 are basic T cell markers. CD56 and 16 are for NK cells. CD5 important in differentiating CLL as it is a T cell marker present on B cell. CD 19,20,23 are B cell markers often used in flow cytometry. TdT is a marker of precursor B or T cell leukemia. CD10 is a marker of immature B cell. B7akaCD80 binds CD28 and is important in priming T cell and consequentially in tumor therapies. CD80 (B7)/86 T cell activation. CD40 of APCs binds CD40L of T cell activating them. CD41 is IIb/IIIa complex. CD38 and 138 in multiple myeloma plus 38+ and ZAP70+ B cells have grim prognosis for CLL while negative give about 25year survival. 79a is marker of lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma which is a common cause of waldenstrom's hyperIgM. PAX5 and TRAP are markers of hairy cell leukemia.

Thank you. What a great answer. What about CD1 and CD21?

CD1 action is yet to be determined by it is found on APCs and serve as lipid antigen presentors to T cells. Also, CD21 binds C3d in complement system and B cells have receptors for it. This same receptor for CD21 is the one EBV binds to. By the way I've edited something on CD80/86 there, not B but T cell activation. Also, CD23 I forgot to mention is a low affinity IgE receptor on B cell (Fc epsilon RII).
