Clone: TLD-3A12
Specificity: Recognizes rat PECAM-1 (CD31), a 661 amino acid type 1 transmembrane protein expressed primarily on endothelial cells, platelets and leucocytes. Clone TLD-3A12 has been shown to partially block the proliferative response of antigen-specific CD4+ T cells to antigen-presenting cells and relevant antigen. This clone has been reported as suitable for use in IHC on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections pre-treated with 0.2 M boric acid, pH7.0. Has been shown to be cross-reactive with endothelial cells derived from rhesus macaque.
