CD34 Monoclonal / PE / AC136

Product Details

Description	The monoclonal antibody clone AC136 detects a class III epitope of the CD34 antigen. This epitope is different than the one recognized by the clone used in the CD34 MicroBead Kits. \| The CD34 antigen is a single chain transmembrane glycoprotein, expressed on human hematopoitetic stem and progenitor cells, endothelial progenitor cells, vascular endothelial cells, embryonic fibroblasts, and some cells in fetal and adult nervous tissue. The antigen is absent on fully differentiated hematopoietic cells such as normal peripheral blood lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, erythrocytes, and platelets. Clone AC136 has a similar specifity as the CD34 monoclonal antibody clone 8G12 (HPCA-2). \| CD34 antibodies can be used for studies of hematopoiesis and nonhematopoiectic stem cells, phenotyping of hematopoietic stem cells, and studies on phenotyping of hematologic malignancies, endothelial cells, and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs).

About CD34
The protein encoded by this gene may play a role in the attachment of stem cells to the bone marrow extracellular matrix or to stromal cells. This single-pass membrane protein is highly glycosylated and phosphorylated by protein kinase C. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

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.
