DC-SIGN Monoclonal / PerCP-Vio700 / REA617

Product Details
Description Clone REA617 recognizes the CD209 antigen, also known as dendritic cell specific ICAM-3 grabbing non-integrin (DC-SIGN), a type II c-type lectin expressed in dermal and mucous tissue, lymphoid tissue such as tonsil, lymph node, spleen, as well as on monocyte-derived DCs (MoDCs). It is not expressed on DC subsets in peripheral blood, except for a subpopulation of CD14+ cells with a DC-like phenotype. DC-SIGN acts as an adhesion receptor to facilitate interactions between DCs and T cells or DCs and endothelial cells. In addition, it serves as an antigen receptor mediating internalization of ligands for antigen presentation, binding virus such as HIV, HCMV, or Ebola as well as parasites, bacteria, or yeast. HIV-1 uses this feature of DC-SIGN for efficient intrans infection of CD4+ T cells. | Additional information: Clone REA617 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.

About DC-SIGN
This gene encodes a C-type lectin that functions in cell adhesion and pathogen recognition. This receptor recognizes a wide range of evolutionarily divergent pathogens with a large impact on public health, including leprosy and tuberculosis mycobacteria, the Ebola, hepatitis C, HIV-1 and Dengue viruses, and the SARS-CoV acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus. The protein is organized into four distinct domains: a C-terminal carbohydrate recognition domain, a flexible tandem-repeat neck domain, a transmembrane region and an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain involved in internalization. This gene is closely related in terms of both sequence and function to a neighboring gene, CLEC4M (Gene ID: 10332), also known as L-SIGN. The two genes differ in viral recognition and expression patterns, with this gene showing high expression on the surface of dendritic cells. Polymorphisms in the neck region are associated with protection from HIV-1 infection, while single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter of this gene are associated with differing resistance and susceptibility to and severity of infectious disease, including rs4804803, which is associated with SARS severity.

About PerCP-Vio700
PerCP-Vio® 770 is a far-red-emitting tandem fluorophore that combines PerCP and a Vio®770 dye. The donor, PerCP, can be excited by the 488 nm blue laser and transfers energy to the acceptor, Vio®770, which emits light that can be captured with a 780/60 nm bandpass filter. APC-Vio®770 has an excitation peak at 482 nm and an emission peak at 704 nm, and is spectrally similar to PerCP-Cy5.5 and PerCP-eF710. PerCP-Vio®770 is known to be very bright and photostable, as well as being stable when treated with fixatives. These favorable characteristics that make it useful in multiple different applications such as flow cytometry and Fluorescence Microscopy. The large stokes shift can be advantageous when trying to fit more colors into a multicolor panel. The Vio® dye family are products of Miltenyi Biotec, with many antibody conjugates designed and validated for flow cytometry.
