Description
Product Characteristics: Coagulation Factor VIII, Factor VIII Related Antigen, F8VWF, von Willebrand Antigen 2, von Willebrand Disease (vWD),von Willebrand Factor / Factor VIII Related-Ag (Endothelial Marker)
Cellular localisation: Cytoplasmic
Target Information: The glycoprotein encoded by this gene functions as both an antihemophilic factor carrier and a platelet-vessel wall mediator in the blood coagulation system. It is crucial to the hemostasis process. Mutations in this gene or deficiencies in this protein result in von Willebrand's disease. An unprocessed pseudogene has been found on chromosome 22.
