Size: 100tests The CD42b (APC-FcA65588) by Proteintech is a Recombinant antibody targeting CD42b in FC applications with reactivity to human samples APC-FcA65588 targets CD42b in FC applications and shows reactivity with human samples. Tested Applications Positive FC detected in: human peripheral blood platelets Recommended dilution Flow Cytometry (FC): FC : 5 ul per 10^6 cells in 100 μl suspension Background Information CD42b, also known as platelet glycoprotein Ib alpha chain (GPIb alpha), is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein of 135-145 kDa (PMID: 2656709). It is expressed on platelets and megakaryocytes. CD42b and CD42c (GPIb beta) are linked by a disulphide bond to form GPIb (PMID: 7660135). GPIb forms a noncovalent complex with CD42a (GPIX) and CD42d (GPV) and acts as a receptor for von Willebrand factor (vWF) and thrombin (PMID: 7660135; 3759960). The GPIb-V-IX complex mediates vWF-dependent platelet adhesion to blood vessels. Defects in the expression of CD42b result in Bernard-Soulier syndromes and platelet-type von Willebrand disease (PMID: 9371310).
