    • Target

    • Function

      Factor VIII, along with calcium and phospholipid, acts as a cofactor for factor IXa when it converts factor X to the activated form, factor Xa.

    • Involvement in disease

      Defects in F8 are the cause of hemophilia A (HEMA) [MIM:306700]. A disorder of blood coagulation characterized by a permanent tendency to hemorrhage. About 50% of patients have severe hemophilia resulting in frequent spontaneous bleeding into joints, muscles and internal organs. Less severe forms are characterized by bleeding after trauma or surgery. Note=Of particular interest for the understanding of the function of F8 is the category of CRM (cross-reacting material) positive patients (approximately 5%) that have considerable amount of F8 in their plasma (at least 30% of normal), but the protein is non-functional; i.e., the F8 activity is much less than the plasma protein level. CRM-reduced is another category of patients in which the F8C antigen and activity are reduced to approximately the same level. Most mutations are CRM negative, and probably affect the folding and stability of the protein.

    • Sequence similarities

      Belongs to the multicopper oxidase family.
      Contains 3 F5/8 type A domains.
      Contains 2 F5/8 type C domains.
      Contains 6 plastocyanin-like domains.

    • Domain

      Domain F5/8 type C 2 is responsible for phospholipid-binding and essential for factor VIII activity.

    • Post-translational
      modifications

      Sulfation on Tyr-1699 is essential for binding vWF.

    • Cellular localization

      Secreted > extracellular space.

      Question

              Dear Jeremy,   Since the ab41188 is not working properly in our system. We would like to replace this antibody with ab41186, which is IgG1 isotype.

      Answer

      Sorry about that. I did set up the order for the correct replacement antibody, 1 vial of ab41186, but noted the wrong catalog number in the email to you.

      Question

      As we talked on the phone regarding the problem I found with the anti-factor 8 (cat.no. ab41188). The antibody (mIgG2a) is falling of from protein A biosensors analysed by Octet (as attached and we found the same pattern in the other two experiments). From our discussion, you kindly suggested us to replace the antibody I am using now with a new tubes and it can be the same or different catalog no.  After a long discussion and a new trial with a new set of biosensors. We kept discover the same results, this antibody (the cat. No. ab41188) is falling off from protein A and G. Therefore here, we decided to replace the anti-factor 8 cat.no. ab41188 with anti-factor 8 cat.no. ab41186.   The one that we are using now was ordered on 08/11/2011, confirmation number 931995 Please let me know if you need any other information.     Thank you/ Best,   Wanida C Hollis Division of Hematology (HFM-330) Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research Food and Drug Administration NIH Building 29, Room 328 Tel (301) 8272498 · Fax (301) 402-2780
