Description

The PK136 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse NK1.1, an antigen expressed by natural killer cells and a subset of T cells in the NK1.1 mouse strains including C57BL and NZB. Several commonly used laboratory mouse strains such as BALB/c, SJL, AKR, CBA, C3H and A do not express the NK1.1 antigen. For detection of NK cells in these strains the monoclonal antibody DX5 (Cat. No. 14-5971) should be used. Simultaneous staining of C57BL/6 spleen cells with PK136 and DX5 reveals coexpression of both markers by a majority of cells as well as presence of small populations of DX5⁺PK136^- and DX5^-PK136⁺ cells.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. PK136 has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis, depletion of NK cells, and in vitro functional studies.

Applications Tested

The PK136 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of C57BL/6 mouse splenocyte suspensions and can be used at less than or equal to 0.5 µg/million cells. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.
