CD42a

• Gene Name:

  [CD42a]

• NCBI Gene ID:

  2815

• Reactivity:

  Human

• Storage Conditions:

  May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.

• Specificity:

  This antibody belongs to CD42a (assigned at the Fourth International Workshop on Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens, Vienna, 1989)1 and binds to the 22,000 dalton IX subunit of the glycoprotein Ib-IX complex. Failed to bind to platelets from patients with Bernard-Soulier Syndrome. Cell reactivity: specific for cells of the platelet megakaryocyte lineage. Reacts with a proportion of acute myeloid leukemias being useful in identifying those of the megakaryoblastic subtype. Species Crossreactivity: human
