DescriptionThe eBioRCR-16 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse Endothelial Protein C Receptor (EPCR, CD201), a 25 kDa Type 1 transmembrane protein expressed on endothelial cells. EPCR exhibits sequence and structural homology with the MHC class I/CD1 family of proteins. EPCR is a ligand for Protein C and plays an important role in augmenting Protein C activation by the thrombin-thrombomodulin complex and in regulating blood coagulation and inflammation. Deletion of EPCR results in embryonic lethality, at least partically due to placental thrombosis. Recently, it was demonstrated that EPCR expression identified cells in the bone marrow that are capable of hematopoietic reconstitution activity comparable to hematopoietic stem cells isolated with conventional methods. The eBio1560 monoclonal antibody can be used for the detection of these hematopoietic stem cells, however the eBiomRCR-16 monoclonal antibody should only be used for the detection of CD201 on endothelial cells. Applications ReportedFor research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This eBiomRCR-16 (mRCR-16) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications TestedThis eBiomRCR-16 (mRCR-16) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of bEnd.3 cells. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.25 μg per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. References
