MPO / PE / REA491
Product Details
| Description | Clone REA491 recognizes the human myeloperoxidase (MPO) antigen, a heterotetrameric protein consisting of two 15 kDa light chains and two variable-weight glycosylated heavy chains bound to a prosthetic heme group. MPO produces hypochlorous acid from hydrogen peroxide and chloride anion during the neutrophil's respiratory burst. Furthermore, it oxidizes tyrosine to tyrosyl radical using hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent. MPO is present in azurophilic granules of neutrophilic granulocytes and monocytes and is also expressed in some acute myeloid leukemia cells. It plays a major role in the oxygen-dependent microbicidal system of of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. The deficiency of this enzyme activity results in a marked microbicidal defect. | Additional information: Clone REA491 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. | |

About MPO
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a heme protein synthesized during myeloid differentiation that constitutes the major component of neutrophil azurophilic granules. Produced as a single chain precursor, myeloperoxidase is subsequently cleaved into a light and heavy chain. The mature myeloperoxidase is a tetramer composed of 2 light chains and 2 heavy chains. This enzyme produces hypohalous acids central to the microbicidal activity of neutrophils. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

About PE
Phycoerythrin (PE, R-PE) is a red-emitting fluorescent protein-chromophore complex that can be excited the 488-nm blue, 532-nm green, or 561-nm yellow-green laser with increasing efficiency and captured with a 586/14 nm bandpass filter. PE has an excitation peak at 565 nm and an emission peak at 578 nm. PE is 240kD in size and has an extinction coefficient of ~2x10^6 which makes it one of the brightest fluorophores available and a potent donor upon which to build tandem fluorophores with longer Stoke's Shifts.
