CD321 (F11R) Monoclonal Antibody (CSTEM27), Alexa Fluor™ 488, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

This monoclonal antibody CSTEM27 reacts with human CD321 (F11R, JAM-1, JAM-A). Applications Reported: This CSTEM27 antibody has been reported for use in immunocytochemical staining and flow cytometric analysis. This CSTEM27 antibody has been tested by immunocytochemistry of adherent cells. This can be used at less than or equal to 5 µg/mL. This CSTEM27 antibody has also been tested by flow cytometric analysis of human iPSCs. This may be used at 0.25 µg/test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. Excitation: 488 nm; Emission: 519 nm; Laser: Blue Laser. Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.

CD321 (F11R, JAM-1, JAM-A) is a cell-surface adhesion molecule belonging to the Ig superfamily of receptors. CD321 is a 32-41 kD glycoprotein, possessing two extracellular Ig-like domains, a transmembrane region, and a short cytosolic tail. The protein assembles at the membrane as a homodimer, and can associate laterally with other membrane proteins including integrins. CD321 is expressed on a variety of cell types, including leukocytes, platelets, erythrocytes, stem cells, epithelial and endothelial cells, and plays a role in mediating cell-cell contact. CD321 can be found in close proximity to several components of epithelial tight junctions, including ZO-1 and occludin. CD321 is involved in the maintenance of epithelial and endothelial barriers, hematopoiesis, angiogenesis, and tumor proliferation, invasion, and metastasis.
