CD107b / FITC / REA1182

Product Details
Description Clone REA1182 recognizes the mouse CD107b antigen, a highly glycosylated 110 kDa single-pass type I membrane protein also known as lysosome-associated membrane protein-2 (LAMP-2) or Mac-3 antigen. It is widely located in lysosomal membranes and the plasma membrane of macrophages and some myeloid cell lines. Under certain circumstances, e.g., after platelet activation, during granulocytic differentiation and activation, in malignant carcinoma cells, and in cytotoxic T lymphocytes, it is also found at the cell surface. CD107b has been described as a receptor for the selective import and degradation of cytosolic proteins in the lysosome or chaperone-mediated autophagy. | Additional information: Clone REA1182 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.

About CD107b
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of membrane glycoproteins. This glycoprotein provides selectins with carbohydrate ligands. It may play a role in tumor cell metastasis. It may also function in the protection, maintenance, and adhesion of the lysosome. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct proteins.

About FITC
Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) has an excitation peak at 495 nm and an emission peak at 519 nm. The name FITC is a misnomer in that the isothiocyanate is a reactive form of this dye. Once FITC is conjugated to an antibody, it is simply Fluorescein conjugated. FITC is one of the most widely used dyes for fluorescent applications, therefore most instruments come standard with a 488 nm laser and FITC filter set up. FITC is commonly conjugated to secondary antibodies and used in applications such as flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry. FITC is relatively dim, sensitive to photobleaching and it is susceptible to changes is pH. There are better performing alternatives to FITC, like Vio®Bright 515, Alexa Fluor™ 488, iFluor® 488, CF®488A and DY-488. FITC is a long-time generic dye with no sole manufacturer or trademark.
