Description The monoclonal antibody R1-2 reacts with mouse CD49d, a 150 kDa Integrin family member, also known as integrin α4 chain. Integrins are cell-surface receptors, expressed as heterodimers essential in various processes mediating intercellular or cell-matrix interaction. CD49d associates non-covalently with the integrin ß or ß1 (CD29) forming the complex VLA4, which is expressed on peripheral lymphocytes, thymocytes, eosinophils, basophils, mast cells, dendritic cells, and monocytes. VLA4 plays a critical role in adhesion and migration of cells into tissues by binding to its ligand VCAM-1 (CD106). Together with the ß7 integrin, CD49d forms the heterodimer LPAM-1, which is a ligand for the mucosal vascular addressin (MAdCAM-1).
About CD49d and APC
CD49d The gene encodes a member of the integrin alpha chain family of proteins. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain that function in cell surface adhesion and signaling. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate light and heavy chains that comprise the alpha 4 subunit. This subunit associates with a beta 1 or beta 7 subunit to form an integrin that may play a role in cell motility and migration. This integrin is a therapeutic target for the treatment of multiple sclerosis, Crohn's disease and inflammatory bowel disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

APC Allophycocyanin (APC) is a fluorescent protein derived from cyanobacteria and red algae and a potent donor fluorophore to create tandem dyes that can be excited off the 633-640 nm laser. APC has an excitation peak at 650 nm and a emission peak at 660 nm.
