CD42a Monoclonal / PE-Vio770 / REA209

Product Details
Description Clone REA209 recognizes CD42a, a 22 KDa transmembrane glycoprotein, which is also known as glycoprotein IX (GPIX). CD42a is a single-pass type I membrane protein with leucine rich motif containing a series of tandem repeats of a 24-amino acid sequence flanked by conserved disulfide loops, in its ligand binding domains. Expression of CD42a is found on platelets and megakaryocytes. CD42a, together with GPIb receptor complex and platelet glycoprotein V forms a complex which serves as the receptor for von Willebrand factor (VWF). The interaction of the GPIb-IX-V complex to VWF initiates initial platelet adhesion to vascular subendothelium after vascular injury, platelet activation, thrombosis, and hemostasis. Other known ligands for GPIb–IX–V include alpha-thrombin, clotting factors XI/XIIa, and high-molecular weight kininogen. | Additional information: Clone REA209 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. |

About CD42a
This gene encodes a small membrane glycoprotein found on the surface of human platelets. It forms a 1-to-1 noncovalent complex with glycoprotein Ib, a platelet surface membrane glycoprotein complex that functions as a receptor for von Willebrand factor. The complete receptor complex includes noncovalent association of the alpha and beta subunits with the protein encoded by this gene and platelet glycoprotein V. Defects in this gene are a cause of Bernard-Soulier syndrome, also known as giant platelet disease. These patients have unusually large platelets and have a clinical bleeding tendency.

About PE-Vio770
PE-Vio® 770 from Miltenyi Biotec is a red-emitting tandem fluorophore that combines pycoerythrin (PE) and Vio®770. The donor molecule, PE can be excited by the 488-nm blue, 532-nm green, or 561-nm yellow-green laser and and transfers energy to the acceptor molecule, Vio®770, which emitts light that can be captured with a 780/60 nm bandpass filter. PE-Vio®770 has an excitation peak at 565 nm and an emission peak at 775 nm and is a common alternative to PE-Cy7 and PE-H7.
