Purpose
- Anti-Protein C [HPC-4], Rabbit IgG, kappa
-
Specificity
- Specifically binds to a specific twelve peptide sequence (EDQVDPRLIDGK) in the activation region of the Protein C (spanning the thrombin cleavage site). Does not react with activated protein C. Has been shown to be cross-reactive with baboon Protein C but not with bovine or mouse Protein C.

Application Notes
- HPC-4 binds human protein C only in the presence of Ca2+, it binds to the reduced carboxymethylated protein C heavy chain, and it blocks protein C activation but does not bind or inactivate protein C or activated protein C bound to its plasma inhibitor. Furthermore, it is an anti-epitope tag antibody, as it recognizes the EDQVDPRLIDGK sequence (Taylor Jr et al., 1987, 3102560). It has been shown to work in ELISAs to determine expression levels (Velander et al., 1992, PMID: 1465430). HPC-4 has been shown to be effective at purifying proteins tagged with its epitope (Rezaie et al., 1992, PMID: 1283093). It has also been used to block the activation of Protein C by the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex (Stearns et al., 1988, PMID: 2447082) and was used for the same purpose in Baboons to lower the threshold of sepsis (Taylor Jr et al., 1987, PMID: 3102560). HPC-4 has been used in many other studies to observe the function of Protein C by knocking out its function in a Ca2+-dependent manner, purification, and others (Tanaka et al., 2006, PMID: 16398653) (Bae et al., 2007, PMID: 17823308).
