Bioassay Technology Laboratory's Integrin Alpha2 Polyclonal Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: EIA, Immunoassay, ELISA, Immunohistochemistry, Immunohistochemistry - fixed, and Western Blot.
Description
ITGA2 encodes the alpha subunit of a transmembrane receptor for collagens and related proteins. The integrin subunit alpha 2 forms a heterodimer with a beta subunit and mediates the adhesion of platelets and other cell types to the extracellular matrix. Loss of the encoded protein is associated with bleeding disorder platelet-type 9. Antibodies against this protein are found in several immune disorders, including neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. This gene is located adjacent to a related alpha subunit gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants
