CD61 Antibody, anti-human, PE

01MT16445

The CD61 antibody recognizes the human CD61 antigen, which is also known as the integrin β3–subunit. CD61 associates with CD41 to form the heterodimeric GPIIb/GPIIIa complex that is present on human megakaryocytes and platelets and mediates cell adhesion processes. Together with CD51, CD61 forms the vitronectin receptor, which is present on platelets as well as on a variety of other cell types such as osteoclasts and endothelial vessel cells. The CD61 antibody specifically recognizes the integrin β3–chain of both heterodimeric complexes.
