Background: Integrins are α/β heterodimeric cell surface receptors that play a pivotal role in cell adhesion and migration, as well as in growth and survival. The integrin family contains at least 18 α and 8 β subunits that form 24 known integrins with distinct tissue distribution and overlapping ligand specificities. Integrins not only transmit signals to cells in response to the extracellular environment (outside-in signaling), but also sense intracellular cues to alter their interaction with the extracellular environment (inside-out signaling).
Integrin α2b is a cell-surface adhesion molecule that undergoes proteolytic cleavage to yield disulfide-linked heavy and light chains, which together with glycoprotein IIIb, forms a major fibrinogen receptor in activated platelets. Mutations in the corresponding ITGA2B gene can result in Glanzmann thrombasthenia, a bleeding disorder characterized by lack of platelet aggregation.

Purification and Purity: The monoclonal antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).

Storage and Stability: Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Specificity: Recognizes human CD41

Extra Notes: Flow cytometric analysis of human platelet using Anti-CD41 Antibody, followed by anti-mouse IgG PE.

Bioworld Molecular Weight: ~ 113 kDa

Note: For research use only, not for use in diagnostic procedure.
