Application Details

Application Notes: Flow Cytometry: 0.5-1 μg/million cells in 0.1ml

Immunofluorescence: 0.5-1 μg/mL

Immunohistochemistry (FFPE): 0.25-0.5 μg/mL for 30 min at RT (1)

Optimal dilution of the Glycophorin A antibody should be determined by the researcher.

1. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10  mM Citrate buffer,  pH 6.0, for 10-20 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 minutes
2. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Target Details for CD235a/GYPA

Target: CD235a/GYPA (GYPA) (Glycophorin A (GYPA))

Alternative Name: Glycophorin A

Background: Recognizes a sialoglycoprotein of 39  kDa, identified as glycophorin A (GPA). It is present on red blood cells (RBC) and erythroid precursor cells. It has been shown that glycophorin acts as the receptor for Sandei virus and parvovirus. Glycophorins A (GPA) and B (GPB), which are single, trans-membrane sialoglycoproteins. GPA is the carrier of blood group M and N specificities, while GPB accounts for S and U specificities. GPA and GPB provide the cells with a large mucin like surface and it has been suggested this provides a barrier to cell fusion, so minimizing aggregation between red blood cells in the circulation.
