Ly-49A Monoclonal / PE / A1

Product Details

Description	Clone A1 recognizes Ly-49A, an inhibitory cell surface receptor belonging to the Ly-49 receptor family. Ly-49A is a 44 kDa type II transmembrane, disulfide-linked homodimer with C-type lectin extracellular domains. Expression of Ly-49A is found on subset of NK and NK-T cells. Ly-49 family members are both activating and inhibitory receptors and are mainly receptors for MHC class I molecules. Ly-49A interacts strongly with MHC class Ia molecules such as H-2Dd, H-2Dk and weakly with H-2Db. An inhibitory signal is delivered by Ly-49A engagement via the phosphorylation of immunoreceptor tyrosine based inhibition motif (ITIM) and recruitment of phosphatases SHP-1 and SHP-2. Recognition of cognate ligand bearing cells leads to inhibition of cytotoxic killing of cells by NK cells.

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.
