Tetherin Monoclonal / FITC / REA818

Product Details
Description Clone REA818 recognizes the mouse CD317 antigen, also known as mouse plasmacytoid dendritic cell antigen-1 (PDCA-1) or BST2. CD317 is specifically expressed on mouse PDCs, a subset of CD11c+ dendritic cells detected at low frequency in all lymphoid tissues, peripheral blood, and some non-lymphoid tissues. In mouse spleen, bone marrow, and lymph nodes, CD317 is exclusively expressed on cells which are CD11clow, Ly-6Chigh, CD45R (B220)+, MHC class IIlow, CD8alow/–, CD80low/–, CD86–, CD40–, CD11b–, CD90–, CD49b (DX5)–, CD3–, CD19–, i.e., on cells with the phenotype of mouse PDCs. Multi-color fluorescent staining of spleen cells clearly revealed that all CD11clow Ly-6Chigh CD45R (B220)+ PDCs are PDCA-1+ and that PDCA-1 expression is restricted to PDCs. | Additional information: Clone REA818 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.

About Tetherin
Bone marrow stromal cells are involved in the growth and development of B-cells. The specific function of the protein encoded by the bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2 is undetermined; however, this protein may play a role in pre-B-cell growth and in rheumatoid arthritis.

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.
