PE Annexin V

SKU: orb1215240

Description

Annexin V belongs to the annexin family of calcium-dependent phospholipid binding proteins and has a high affinity for phosphatidylserine (PS). One of the characteristic features of early stage apoptosis is the translocation of PS from the inner to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane, exposing it to the extracellular environment where it can be detected. Fluorochrome conjugated Annexin V can serve as a sensitive detection probe for this hallmark of early stage apoptotic change.
