About CD20
This gene encodes a member of the membrane-spanning 4A gene family. Members of this nascent protein family are characterized by common structural features and similar intron/exon splice boundaries and display unique expression patterns among hematopoietic cells and nonlymphoid tissues. This gene encodes a B-lymphocyte surface molecule which plays a role in the development and differentiation of B-cells into plasma cells. This family member is localized to 11q12, among a cluster of family members. Alternative splicing of this gene results in two transcript variants which encode the same protein.

About StarBright Blue 700
StarBright Blue 700 (SBB700) is a fluorescent polymer nanoparticle with an excitation peak at 475 nm and an emission peak at 700 nm, an alternative to PerCP-Cy5.5 in flow cytometry. The StarBright family fluorophores from Bio-Rad offers an alternative to the Horizon Brilliant™ polymer series from BD Biosciences including Brilliant™ Violet and Brilliant™ UV. StarBright Blue 700 is spectrally comparable to BB700 and Nova Fluor Blue 690.
