General description
Anti-PECAM-1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total PECAM-1 protein.
The platelet and endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM1) gene, spanning 75-kb, is mapped on the long arm of human chromosome 17. This gene codes for 130-kD protein, which belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. It is a vital component of the endothelial cell intercellular junction. PECAM1 is expressed on the surface of circulating platelets, monocytes, neutrophils and selected T-cell subsets.
Immunogen
The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human PECAM-1.
Immunogen Range: 686-735
Application
Anti-PECAM-1, C-Terminal antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions
Platelet and endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM1) also called as cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31), plays a crucial role in the adhesion cascade leading to leukocyte extravasation during the inflammatory process. PECAM1 is essential for leukocyte transmigration via intercellular junctions of vascular endothelial cells. Genetic polymorphism of PECAM1 is associated with atherosclerotic events. PECAM1, is a membrane glycoprotein that facilitates both homophilic and heterophilic adhesion. PECAM1 is also implicated in angiogenesis.
