Quick Overview for CD235a/GYPA antibody (ABIN6937358)

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

Reactivity: Human

Host: Rabbit

Clonality: Polyclonal

Conjugate: This CD235a/GYPA antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (Formalin-fixed Sections) (IHC (f))

Product Details anti-CD235a/GYPA Antibody

Specificity: 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.
