Description

The AA4.1 monoclonal antibody reacts with mouse C1qRp, an approximately 130-140 kDa C-type lectin-like type I transmembrane protein. The AA4.1 antigen was originally identified as an antigen expressed on early stages of B cell development in bone marrow. Adult spleen and fetal liver also have detectable numbers of AA4.1⁺ cells. In combination with other markers of hematopoietic progenitor cells such as Thy-1, Sca-1, c-Kit, CD43, and CD24, the bone marrow Lymphoid-Committed Progenitors (CLP) can be segregated into more primitive and more differentiated subsets based on expression of AA4.1. Correlated expression of surface IgM (sIgM), CD23, and AA4.1 antigen has also been used to define three nonproliferative subpopulations of immature/transitional peripheral B cells designated: T1 (AA4.1⁺/CD23^-/sIgMhi), T2 (AA4.1⁺/CD23⁺/sIgMhi), and T3 (AA4.1⁺/CD23⁺/sIgMlo). AA4.1 is also reported to be expressed in cytoplasmic vesicles in endothelial cells, megakaryoblasts, and platelets. It is reported that monoclonal antibodies AA4.1 and 493 recognize different epitopes of the same molecule.

Applications Reported

For research use only, not for diagnostic or therapeutic use. This AA4.1 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Protect this reagent from light during storage and all handling steps. When staining cells with PE-Cy7-conjugated antibodies, always protect samples from light.

Applications Tested

This AA4.1 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse bone marrow and splenocyte cell 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.
