CD195 (CCR5) Monoclonal Antibody (NP-6G4), PerCP-eFluor™ 710, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

Description: The NP-6G4 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD195 (CCR5), an approximately 45 kDa member of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily that binds chemokines including MIP-1a, MIP-1b and RANTES. Human CCR5 is expressed on resting T cells with a memory/effector phenotype, monocytes, macrophages and immature dendritic cells. CCR5 functions as a receptor to direct the chemotaxis of lymphocytes, and is the primary co-receptor for macrophage-tropic Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1), which binds CCR5 through gp120. Applications Reported: This NP-6G4 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This NP-6G4 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested on normal human peripheral blood cells. For optimal performance, it is recommended that staining with NP-6G4 be done at 37°C for 1 hour in Flow Cytometry Staining Buffer (cat. 00-4222). This can be used at 5 μL (0.125 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. PerCP-eFluor™ 710 emits at 710 nm and is excited with the blue laser (488 nm); it can be used in place of PerCP-Cyanine5.5. We recommend using a 710/50 bandpass filter, however, the 695/40 bandpass filter is an acceptable alternative.

CD195 (CCR5) Monoclonal antibody specifically detects CD195 (CCR5) in Human samples. It is validated for Flow Cytometry.
