Description
The R17217 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse CD71, a 170-180 kDa type II transmembrane protein. CD71, the transferrin receptor, exists as a homodimer on the cell surface and is essential for cellular growth. CD71 is expressed by immature proliferating cells and at low levels on resting mature lymphocytes. Antigen or mitogen stimulation of T and B cells upregulates the expression of CD71.
Applications Reported
For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. The R17217 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested
The R17217 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocyte and bone marrow suspensions. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 μg per million cells in a 100 μl total staining volume. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
