Description
The DATK32 monoclonal antibody binds to a combinatorial epitope of mouse LPAM-1 (α
4β
7), which is a heterodimer of the the 154 kDa α
4 subunit and the 130 kDa β
7 subunit. In mouse, the β
7 subunit is found on the majority of mature lymphocytes and a small population of thymocytes and bone marrow cells. LPAM-1 is an integrin involved in the transendothelial migration of lymphocytes across high endothelial venules (HEV), and is know to bind several ligands including MAdCAM-1, VCAM-1 and fibronectin. Binding of the DATK32 monoclonal antibody has been shown to induce aggregation of the CD8+ T cell lymphoma TK1, and block LPAM-1-mediated cell adhesion.
Applications Reported
For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This DATK32 (DATK-32) antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested
This DATK32 (DATK-32) antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. 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.
