Antibody type
Monoclonal antibodies
Immunogen
Purified recombinant human CD31 protein fragments expressed in E.coli.
Specificity
This antibody detects endogenous levels of CD31 and does not cross-react with related proteins.

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is found on the surface of platelets, monocytes, neutrophils, and some types of T-cells, and makes up a large portion of endothelial cell intercellular junctions. The encoded protein is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and is likely involved in leukocyte migration, angiogenesis, and integrin activation. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010],
Function
function:This protein is a cell adhesion molecule expressed on platelets and at endothelial cell intercellular junctions.,online information:CD31 entry,online information:PECAM-1,online information:The Singapore human mutation and polymorphism database,PTM:Phosphorylated on Ser and Tyr residues after cellular activation.,similarity:Contains 6 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains.,tissue specificity:Long isoform predominates all tissues examined, isoform Delta12 was detected only in trachea and isoform Delta14-15 only in lung, isoform Delta14 was detected in all tissues examined with the strongest expression in heart.,
