About CD49b
This gene encodes the alpha subunit of a transmembrane receptor for collagens and related proteins. The encoded protein forms a heterodimer with a beta subunit and mediates the adhesion of platelets and other cell types to the extracellular matrix. Loss of the encoded protein is associated with bleeding disorder platelet-type 9. Antibodies against this protein are found in several immune disorders, including neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. This gene is located adjacent to a related alpha subunit gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2012]
About Brilliant Violet 480
Brilliantâ„¢ Violet 480 (BV480) is a green-emitting non-tandem polymer fluorophore that can be excited by the 405 nm Violet laser and collected using a 525/40 bandpass filter. BV480 has an excitation peak at 436 nm and an emission peak at 478 nm, and provides an optimized alternative to BV510. Other dyes that are similar include StarBright Violet 475 (Bio-Rad) While BV480 can be detected on the same filter as BV510, its emmision profile reduces spillover into the BV605, BV650, and BV711 channels. Additionally BV480's excitation profile will reduce cross-laser excitation with the UV laser, resulting in less spillover into UV channels than BV510. These advantages make BV480 an optimal choice for flow cytometry panels using multiple reagents on Violet and/or UV lasers. This dye is part of the Brilliantâ„¢ Violet dye line. BV510 and BV480 are the only dyes in the Brilliantâ„¢ Violet dye family that are not tandem fluorophores based off the BV421 polymer core, but they have nearly the same maximum excitation.
