Platelet GPVI Mouse anti-Human, Brilliant Violet 421, Clone: HY101 (also known as HY 101; HY-101), BD Optibuild™

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Manufacturer:  BD Biosciences 743941

Catalog No. BDB743941

Description

The HY101 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to a collagen receptor, Platelet Glycoprotein VI (GPVI or GP6). GPVI is a 58-kD platelet membrane glycoprotein that belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily. Upon blood vessel wall injury and consequent endothelial cell damage, platelets collect upon the exposed collagen fibers present in the subendothelial matrix. The platelet and collagen interaction leads to activated platelet aggregation and thrombus formation. Although normally serving a protective function in clot formation that limits blood loss, the platelet GPVI/collagen interaction may also play a role in myocardial infarction and stroke which are associated with the rupture of atherosclerotic plaques.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 407nm and Em Max at 421nm, BD Horizon BV421 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the standard Pacific Blue™ filter set (eg, 450/50nm filter). BD Horizon BV421 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue conjugates. BV421 is a polymer-based dye excited by the violet laser and is one of the brightest fluorochromes offered by BD Biosciences. Conjugates are typically 10 times brighter than Pacific Blue™ conjugates and are often as bright as or brighter than PE conjugates. Due to nearly identical excitation and emission properties but different spillover characteristics, BD Horizon BV421, Pacific Blue™, and BD Horizon™ V450 cannot be used simultaneously.
