CD41/CD61 (clone PAB-1) FITC, anti-human

Decription:
Mouse monoclonal antibody to human CD41/CD61 FITC conjugate. The integrin alpha IIb chain interacts with the integrin beta 3 subunit (CD61) to form the platelet glycoprotein complex, GpIIb/IIIa. It is expressed on platelets and megakaryocytes. The CD41/CD61 complex appears early in megakaryocyte maturation. Ligands for the GpIIb/IIIa heterodimer include fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, fibronectin, vitronectin, and thrombospondin. The GpIIb/IIIa complex is the major integrin on platelets and is important for clot retraction, platelet adhesion and aggregation.
