CD29 Antibody, anti-human, PE-

Identification and enumeration of CD29+ cells by flow cytometryClone REA1060 recognizes the human CD29 antigen, a 130 kDa single-pass type I membrane protein. CD29 is also known as integrin β1 or GPIIa. It forms heterodimers with integrins α1-11 and αV to form functional integrin receptors which bind several cell surface and extracellular molecules such as collagen, fibronectin, laminin, VCAM1, cytotactin, osteopontin, epiligrin, thrombospondin, etc. The cytoplasmic domain of CD29 can interact with cytoskeletal proteins and signaling molecules. In humans, CD29 can be found in four different isoforms (β1A, β1B, β1C, β1D). | Additional information: Clone REA1060 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.
