Glycophorin C Antibody (BRIC10): sc-59183

Glycophorin C Antibody (BRIC10) is a mouse monoclonal IgG1 antibody that detects Glycophorin C in human samples through applications such as western blotting (WB), immunoprecipitation (IP), and flow cytometry (FCM). Glycophorin C is a crucial sialoglycoprotein located in the membrane of human erythrocytes, where anti-Glycophorin C antibody (BRIC10) plays a significant role in maintaining the structural integrity and stability of red blood cells. Glycophorin C is essential for the proper functioning of erythrocytes, as this protein helps to prevent hemolysis and facilitates the interaction of red blood cells with other cells in the bloodstream. The Glycophorin C gene, which maps to chromosome 2q14.3, can produce two isoforms through alternative splicing, with Isoform 1 encoding the full-length 128 amino acid protein and Isoform 2, also known as Glycophorin D, encoding a shorter 109 amino acid variant. The presence of these isoforms is important for defining blood group phenotypes and can influence transfusion compatibility, making Glycophorin C a critical target for studies related to blood group antigens and transfusion medicine. Glycophorin C monoclonal antibody (BRIC10) is an invaluable tool for researchers investigating erythrocyte biology and blood group antigen expression.

The preferred Glycophorin C antibody is Glycophorin C Antibody (E5): sc-59185.
