Milli-Mark^® Anti-CD41-FITC Antibody, clone 5B12

CD41 is the α-subunit of the CD41/CD61 complex (GPIIb-IIIa), a calcium-dependent, non-covalently associated heterodimer. CD41 is a 135 kDa molecule, consisting of 2 peptides: a 120 kDa α chain and a 23 kDa β chain. The α chain and the β chain are linked by a single disulphide bond. The α chain contains four calcium-binding sites and is entirely extracellular, while the β-chain has extracellular, transmembrane, and cytoplasmic domains (Sun, 1997). The CD41/CD61 complex appears early in megakaryocyte maturation (Vinci, 1984). Anti-CD41, 5B12, was included in the Fifth International Workshop and Conference on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens and studies by a number of laboratories confirmed its reactivity with CD41 (Honda, 1995).
