The DATK32 monoclonal antibody specifically reacts with an epitoPE of the Mouse alpha-4-beta-7 integrin (LPAM-1). The two subunits of the LPAM-1 heterodimer are the 154 kDa alpha-4 and the 130 kDa beta-7. Most mature lymphocytes, a subset of bone marrow cells, and some of the thymic cells express the alpha-4-beta-7 integrin heterodimer. alpha-4-beta-7 enhances the transendothelial migration of lymphocytes, and interacts with several ligands (fibronectin, CD106, and MAdCAM-1). The interaction of DATK32 with the alpha-4-beta-7 induces the alpha-4-beta-7-dependent lymphocyte aggregation and inhibits LPAM-1-dediated cell adhesion.
