  • Product overview

    Abcam's Annexin V-PE-Cy5 Apoptosis Detection Kit is based on the observation that soon after initiating apoptosis, most cell types translocate the membrane phospholipid phosphatidylserine (PS) from the inner face of the plasma membrane to the cell surface. Once on the cell surface, PS can be easily detected by staining with a fluorescent conjugate of Annexin V, a protein that has a strong natural affinity for PS. The one-step staining procedure takes only 10 minutes. In addition, the assay can be directly performed on live cells, without the need for fixation. Results can be analyzed by flow cytometry or fluorescence microscopy.

Properties

  • FunctionThis protein is an anticoagulant protein that acts as an indirect inhibitor of the thromboplastin-specific complex, which is involved in the blood coagulation cascade.
  • Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the annexin family.
    Contains 4 annexin repeats.
  • DomainA pair of annexin repeats may form one binding site for calcium and phospholipid.

    Thank you for prompt reply. I am sorry for incorrect enquiry, but I would ask you about possibility to use ab14159Annexin V-PE-Cy5 Apoptosis Detection Kit for detection apoptoticcells expressing GFP.



    We do not have any experimentaldata for theuse of this kitwith GFP, howeverI think this should be ok sincethe kit uses the tandem (PE-Cy5) for which the excitation wavelengthis 488 nm and the emission 670nm. This should not interfere with the GF...
