PerCP-Cy5.5 Anti-Human CD156c (ADAM10) Antibody (11G2)

CD156c, also known as a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 10 (ADAM10), is a 748 amino acid type I membrane glycoprotein ubiquitously expressed on most cell types. It consists of multiple functional domains, including a N-terminal prodomain, catalytic domain, cysteine-rich domain, transmembranous domain, and cytoplasmic domain. It is secreted as a precursor protein and becomes as the activate/mature form through removing the ADAM10 prodomain by proprotein convertase 7 and furin. ADAM10 functions as metalloproteinase to cleave several molecules including Notch, pro-TNF-α, amyloid precursor protein, myelin basic protein, and type IV collagen. It mediates the release of several cell adhesion molecules such as vascular endothelial cadherin or L-selectin to regulate endothelial permeability and leukocyte transmigration. Dysregulation of ADAM activity may contribute to the pathogenesis of vascular diseases.

Volume per test: 5μL. Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by flow cytometric analysis. The amount of the reagent is suggested to be used 5 µL of antibody per test (million cells in 100 µL staining volume or per 100 µL of whole blood) . Please check your vial before the experiment. Since applications vary, the appropriate dilutions must be determined for individual use.

PerCP-Cy5.5 is designed to be excited by the blue laser (488 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 675 nm (e.g., a 690/50 nm bandpass filter) .
