Overview

Product Description Rat Monoclonal antibody [M/K-2] recognizes CD106 / VCAM1
Tested Reactivity Ms
Tested Application BL, FACS, IHC-Fr, IP, WB
Specificity Mouse CD106. The clone MK-2 has been used in transplant studies to suppress cardiac rejection and induce long-term cardiac graft survival. The M/K-2 monoclonal antibody immunoprecipitates a peptide that gives a single band on SDS-PAGE gels with an apparent MW of ~100 kDa under reducing conditions and 92 kDa under non-reducing conditions.

GeneID: 22329 Mouse VCAM1

Swiss-port # P29533 Mouse Vascular cell adhesion protein 1

Gene Symbol VCAM1
Gene Full Name vascular cell adhesion molecule 1
Background This gene is a member of the Ig superfamily and encodes a cell surface sialoglycoprotein expressed by cytokine-activated endothelium. This type I membrane protein mediates leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion and signal transduction, and may play a role in the development of artherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Three alternatively spliced transcripts encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
Function Important in cell-cell recognition. Appears to function in leukocyte-endothelial cell adhesion. Interacts with integrin alpha-4/beta-1 (ITGA4/ITGB1) on leukocytes, and mediates both adhesion and signal transduction. The VCAM1/ITGA4/ITGB1 interaction may play a pathophysiologic role both in immune responses and in leukocyte emigration to sites of inflammation. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 81 kDa
PTM Sialoglycoprotein.
