CD63 is a 53kDa lysosomal membrane protein in the family of tetraspan moieties, and characterized as an activation dependent platelet surface antigen. Anti-CD63 reactivity is seen in the cytoplasm of many cell types including lymphoid, myeloid, endothelial cells, and the majority of malignant melanomas. Anti-CD63 is a useful immunohistochemical marker for the identification of malignant melanoma.1-4
