Description
- Annexin V is a member of the annexin family of proteins that bind to membrane phospholipids in the presence of calcium
- This dye has high affinity for phosphatidylserine (PS) that is present in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane
- During early-stage cell apoptosis, PS is translocated from the inner to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane, exposing it to the external environment
- Annexin V, a characteristic marker for early cell apoptosis, detects the translocation of PS to the external environment
- Annexin V is used along with viability dyes such as 7-AAD (Catalog #75001) or Propidium Iodide (Catalog #75002)
- The process of PS translocation occurs prior to the loss of membrane integrity
- Therefore, as cells progress through apoptosis and towards necrosis, the cell membrane is compromised and consequently, viability dyes pass into the cell
- Thus, cells undergoing early apoptosis stain positive for Annexin V and negative for viability dyes, while apoptotic death or necrosis is characterized by positive staining for both Annexin V and the viability dye
