Anti-Hu CD49d FITC

Anti-Hu CD49d FITC

• Background: CD49d / integrin alpha 4, unlike other alpha integrins, neither contains an I-domain, nor undergoes disulfide-linked cleavage. It associates with beta 7 chain to form alpha 4 / beta 7 integrin, and with beta 1 chain (CD29) to form VLA-4 integrin. These complexes are important for lymphocyte migration from circulation into tissue (binding VCAM-1) and homing of T cell subsets to Peyer´s patches (binding MadCAM-1), but VLA-4 is also target for invasive bacteria which contain invasin. CD49d is essential for differentiation and migration of hematopoietic stem cells by their adhesion to bone marrow stromal cells, and provides a costimulatory signal to TCR-CD3 complex by inducing phosphorylation of some focal adhesion proteins.
• Specifications: The mouse monoclonal antibody 9F10 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD49d (alpha 4 integrin), a 145-180 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on B and T cells, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils, NK cells, and dendritic cells, but not platelets.
