Reactivity	Human, Porcine
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Porcine CD31/human IgGFc fusion protein.
Specificity	This anitibody recognises CD31, a 140 kD cell surface protein also called PECAM-1, expressed by various cell types, but particularly by endothelial cells. Clone LCI-4 has been shown to stimulate tyrosine phosphorylation of CD31 on endothelial cells.

Conjugation	APC
Storage Condition	Store the antibody undiluted Prior to and After reconstitution at 2-8°C. DO NOT FREEZE!. This product is photosensitive and should be protected from light.
Database Link	UniProt ID Q95242
Background	Cell adhesion molecules are a family of closely related cell surface glycoproteins involved in cell-cell interactions during growth and are thought to play an important role in embryogenesis and development. Neuronal cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) expression is observed in a variety of human tumors including neuroblastomas, rhabdomyosarcomas, Wilms’ tumors, Ewing’s sarcomas and some primitive myeloid malignancies. The intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), also referred to as CD54, is an integral membrane protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily and recognizes the B2α1 and B2αM Integrins. PECAM-1 (platelet/endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1), also referred to as CD31, is a glycoprotein expressed on the cell surfaces of monocytes, neutrophils, platelets and a subpopulation of T cells. VCAM-1 (vascular cell adhesion molecule-1) was first identified as an adhesion molecule induced on human endothelial cells by inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The KALIG gene encodes a nerve cell adhesion molecule (NCAM)-like protein and is deleted in 66% of patients with Kallmann’s syndrome, anosmia with secondary hypogonadism.
Synonyms	PECAM-1, EndoCAM, GPIIA'
