Description
The HIP2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD41b. CD41b/CD41 is encoded by the ITGA2B gene and is also known as Platelet glycoprotein GPIIb and Integrin alpha IIb. CD41 is transmembrane glycoprotein that is post-translationally processed into a disulfide linked α-chain and β-chain. CD41 combines with CD61, otherwise known as Glycoprotein IIIa or β3 integrin, to form the CD41/CD61 (GPIIb/IIIa) complex. This complex is expressed on platelets and megakaryocytes and is involved in platelet activation, aggregation and binding to extracellular matrix proteins. Upon platelet activation, the CD41/CD61 complex can function as a receptor for fribrinogen, fibronectin and von Willebrand factor. In contrast to other CD41b antibodies, HIP2 does not detect anti-ZWa bound to GPIIb/IIIa. This antibody appears to be a weak aggregation inducer.
