Anti-CD41 (αllb integrin,GPllb)

 

Our unique anti-CD41 monoclonal antibodies are generated in human αIIb transgenic mice immunized with wild-type mice platelets or in C57 wild-type mice immunized with human αIIb transgenic mice platelets.

Anti-CD42b (GPlbα)

 

Glycoprotein Ibα (GPIbα), also known as CD42b, is a component of the GPIb-V-IX complex on platelets. The GPIb-V-IX complex binds von Willebrand factor, allowing platelet adhesion and platelet plug formation at sites of vascular injury. These anti-CD42b monoclonal antibodies are generated in hybridoma cells isolated from GPIbα knockout mice immunized with wild-type mouse platelets. 

Anti-CD61 (β3, GPIIIa) 

 

Antigen CD61, also known as β3 integrin, is an integrin family protein comprised of αIIb/αV and β3 subunits that performs both outside-in and inside-out signalling contributing to cell adhesion. Our anti-CD61 monoclonal antibodies are generated in hybridoma cells isolated from β3 knockout mice immunized with purified recombinant human β3 integrin.
