Target: ITGA2 (Integrin alpha 2 (ITGA2))

Reactivity: Human, Monkey

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This ITGA2 antibody is un-conjugated

Product Details anti-ITGA2 Antibody

Specificity: This antibody is identified as capable of immunoprecipitating a non-reducible alpha subunit from I125 surface labelled cell line extract. It is confirmed as specific to the alpha 2 subunit by relative expression of antigen on various cell lines by FACS, and its recognition of affinity purified alpha 2 beta 1 in dot blots.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Species reactivity (tested):Human.

Purification: Affinity Chromatography on Protein G

Immunogen: Purified human beta1 preparation from HT1080 fibrosarcoma cell extract. Spleen cells from immunised BALB/c mice were fused with cells of the X63/Ag8.653 mouse myeloma cell line.

Isotype: IgG1

Target Details for ITGA2

Target: ITGA2 (Integrin alpha 2 (ITGA2))

Alternative Name: CD49b / ITGA2

Background: CD49b, a member of the integrin family of extracellular matrix and cell adhesion molecules, is the integrin alpha-2 chain. CD49b associates noncovalently with CD29, the integrin beta-1 subunit, to form the heterodimer integrin a2b1 that binds laminin and collagen. It is expressed on B and T lymphocytes, NK cells, monocytes, platelets, fibroblasts and long-term cultured T cells. CD49b/CD29 mediates the Mg++ dependent adhesion of platelets to collagen. It may also be utilized by fibroblasts for the reorganization of the collagen matrix during would healing.Synonyms: CD49 antigen-like family member B, Collagen Receptor, GPIa, ITGA-2, Integrin alpha-2, Platelet membrane glycoprotein Ia, VLA-2 alpha, VLA2
