CD31 Antibody

Application Note: CD31 antibody has been tested for use in ELISA, immunohistochemistry, and by western blot. Specific conditions for reactivity should be optimized by the end user. Expect a band approximately 80 kDa in size corresponding to CD31 protein by western blotting in the appropriate stimulated tissue or cell lysate or extract.

Immunogen: This antibody was prepared from whole rabbit serum produced by repeated immunizations with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal domain of rat CD31 protein.

Physical State: Liquid (sterile filtered)

Purity and Specificity: CD31 PECAM1 antibody is directed against rat CD31 protein. The product is delipidated and defibrinated antiserum. A BLAST analysis was used to suggest cross-reactivity with CD31 from rat, human, and mouse based on a 100% homology with the immunizing sequence. Reactivity against homologues from other sources is not known.

Background: Anti-CD31 antibody was designed, produced, and validated as part of the Joy Cappel Young Investigator Award (JCYIA). CD31 (PECAM-1) is a 130 kDa platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule encoded by the PECAM1 gene found on chromosome 17 in humans. CD31 is expressed on platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, and some types of T-cells, and makes up a large portion of endothelial cell intercellular junctions. CD31 plays a key role in modulation of integrin-mediated cell adhesion, leukocyte transendothelial migration, angiogenesis, apoptosis and macrophage phagocytosis. CD31 is also expressed in certain tumors, including epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, epithelioid sarcoma-like hemangioendothelioma, other vascular tumors, histiocytic malignancies, and plasmacytomas. Anti-CD31 is ideal for researchers interested in Stem Cell Research, Epigenetics, and Cell-cycle Regulation research.
