P-Selectin antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN810080

Product Details anti-P-Selectin Antibody (FITC)

Target: P-Selectin (SELP) (Selectin P (Granule Membrane Protein 140kDa, Antigen CD62) (SELP))

Reactivity: Human, Non-Human Primate

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This P-Selectin antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The antibody AK4 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD62P (P-selectin), a 140 kD single chain type I transmembrane glycoprotein present in secretory alpha-granules in platelets, in Weibel-Palade bodies in endothelial cells and in megakaryocytes, it is relocated to the plasma membrane upon activation.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human, Non-Human Primates

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Background: Selectin P,CD62P (P-selectin) is an adhesion glycoprotein that is expressed on platelets and endothelial cells upon their activation. Interaction between CD62P and its mucin-like ligand PSGL-1 (P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1) expressed on the microvilli of most leukocytes supports leukocyte rolling along postkapillary venules at the earliest time of inflammation. Both CD62P and PSGL-1 are extended glycoproteins that form homodimers. CD62P dimerization is probably mediated through interactions of the transmembrane domains and stabilizes leukocyte tethering and rolling, probably by increasing rebinding within a bond cluster.,P-selectin, GMP140, SELP, PADGEM, GRMP, LECAM3, PSEL
