TCR V beta 8.1/8.2 Monoclonal / FITC / REA585
Product Details
| Description | Clone REA585 recognizes the mouse Vbeta8.1, 8.2 T cell receptor (TCR Vbeta8.1, 8.2) but not Vbeta8.3. Vbeta8.1 and 8.2 are variants of the TCR beta chain that associates with the TCR alpha chain. The TCR is responsible for recognizing antigens bound to major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules. It is a disulfide-linked membrane-anchored heterodimeric glycoprotein normally consisting of the highly variable alpha and beta chains. TCR Vbeta8.1, 8.2 is expressed on approximately 20 % of peripheral T cells in thymus, spleen, and other lymphoid organs in different mice strains, such as Balb/c, AKR, C57BL/6, AKR/B10.A. | Additional information: Clone REA585 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors | |

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.
