CD49f (alpha 6 integrin) is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein, which noncovalently associates with CD29 (beta 1 integrin) to form VLA-6, and with CD104 (beta 4 integrin) to form alpha6/beta4 integrin complex. CD49f is expressed on platelets, megakaryocytes, monocytes, T cells and thymocytes. It is widely expressed on many cultured adherent cell lines and on epithelia in non-lymphoid tissues. It is important for adhesion to laminins, invasin, and merosin, hence also for cell migration, embryogenesis, metastasis, formation of hemidesmosomes in epithelia, and other processes.
Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 10 µl reagent / 100 µl of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.
