CD355 Monoclonal / FITC / REA882

Product Details
Description Clone REA882 recognizes the mouse CD355 antigen, also known as class I MHC-restricted T cell associated molecule (CRTAM). CD355 is a type I immunoglobulin-superfamily transmembrane receptor, which is expressed by activated CD8+ T cells and NK cells, but it is also found on spleen, brain, and testis. CD355 recognizes nectin-like molecule 2 (Necl-2), a cell-surface protein that mediates epithelial cell junctions and interactions with other nectins and Necls. In association with Necl-2, CD355 promotes cytotoxicity of NK cells and IFN-gamma secretion of CD8+ T cells and NK cell–mediated rejection of tumors. | Additional information: Clone REA882 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.

About CD355
The CRTAM gene is upregulated in CD4 (see MIM 186940)-positive and CD8 (see CD8A; MIM 186910)-positive T cells and encodes a type I transmembrane protein with V and C1-like Ig domains (Yeh et al., 2008 [PubMed 18329370]).[supplied by OMIM, Feb 2009]
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.
