Monoclonal Anti-CD142 PE produced in mouse

CD142, also known as coagulation factor III, tissue thromboplastin, and tissue factor. It is a transmembrane glycoprotein, which enables cells to initiate the blood coagulation cascades, and functions as the high-affinity receptor for the coagulation factor VII. The resulting complex provides a catalytic event that is responsible for initiation of the coagulation protease cascades by specific limited proteolysis. Unlike the other cofactors of these protease cascades, which circulate as nonfunctional precursors, this factor is a potent initiator that is fully functional when expressed on cell surfaces. It is the only one factor in the coagulation pathway for which a congenital deficiency has not been described.

The mouse monoclonal antibody HTF-1, also known as HTF1-7B8, recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD142 (tissue factor, coagulation factor III), a type I glycoprotein expressed on endothelial cells, monocytes, macrophages, and platelets upon induction by inflammatory mediators, and expressed constitutively by some tumors, the vasculature, placenta, kidney, and central nervous system.

Stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, 15 mM sodium azide

Purified antibody is conjugated with R-phycoerythrin (PE) under optimum conditions. Unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Store at 2-8°C. Protect from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

The antibody solution should be gently mixed before use.
