Target data

Function

Collagen receptor involved in collagen-induced platelet adhesion and activation (PubMed:16139873, PubMed:24368846). Plays a key role in platelet procoagulant activity and subsequent thrombin and fibrin formation. This procoagulant function may contribute to arterial and venous thrombus formation. The signaling pathway involves the FcR gamma-chain, the Src kinases (likely FYN or LYN) and SYK, the adapter protein LAT and leads to the activation of PLCG2.

Notes

ab289987 is the carrier-free version of Anti-GPVI antibody [EPR25283-14] ab289964.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

GPVI or glycoprotein VI functions mechanically as a collagen receptor on the surface of platelets. With a molecular mass around 62 kDa it is expressed mainly on megakaryocytes and platelets. GPVI plays an important role in platelet adhesion and activation by binding to collagen exposed at sites of vascular injury. This interaction initiates a cascade of platelet activation essential for normal hemostasis.

Biological function summary

The target participates in the formation of platelet activation complexes. GPVI partners with the Fc receptor γ-chain to transmit activation signals upon collagen binding. This process results in platelet shape change granule secretion and aggregation which are all critical steps for clot formation. By interacting with collagen GPVI ensures that platelets can effectively respond to vascular damage particularly in arterial vessels where high shear forces prevail.

Pathways

The glycoprotein VI contributes significantly to the immune and coagulation pathways. It activates the enzyme Syk kinase following collagen binding which further triggers the downstream signaling pathways like the MAPK pathway leading to platelet activation. GPVI works closely with other receptors like integrin α2β1 and the glycoprotein Ib/V/IX complex reinforcing platelet-collagen interactions and stabilizing the platelet plug formation during thrombus growth.

Associated diseases and disorders

Glycoprotein VI shows relevance in cardiovascular diseases and immune thrombocytopenia. Abnormal GPVI function or expression can exacerbate conditions such as myocardial infarction by promoting excessive platelet activation and thrombosis. Conversely reduced GPVI levels relate to bleeding disorders due to impaired platelet function. Studies have also linked GPVI to autoimmune conditions where antibodies may target it similar to responses in immune thrombocytopenia.
