Description

The eBio12A8 antibody reacts with Ly-49A and Ly-49D. The Ly-49 family of NK-cell receptors, members of the C-type lectin superfamily, are disulfide-linked type-II transmembrane protein homodimers with extracellular carbohydrate-recognition domains which bind to MHC class I alloantigens. The Ly-49 family members are expressed independently, such that an individual NK or T cell may display more than one class of Ly-49 receptor homodimers. Ly-49D is expressed on subsets of natural killer cells in C57BL/6, C3H/He, and SJL mice, but not DBA/2, AKR, CBA/J, or BALB/c mice. The Ly-49D antigen has not been detected on NK-1.1+ T cells. The Ly-49D receptor has been implicated in mediation of NK cell cytolysis. Ly-49D is an activating receptor while Ly-49A is a inhibitory receptor.

eBio12A8 does not react with BALB/c, DBA/2, AKR, or CBA/J Ly-D49D.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This eBio12A8 (12A8) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested

This eBio12A8 (12A8) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse spleen cell suspensions. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.125 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.
