CD335 (NKp46) Monoclonal Antibody (29A1.4), Super Bright™ 600, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™ 

Description

Description: The monoclonal antibody 29A1.4 recognizes mouse NKp46, also known as CD335. CD335, a member of the natural cytotoxicity receptor (NCR) family, is a glycoprotein with 2 Ig-like domains and a short cytoplasmic tail. Expression of CD335 is uniquely found on NK cells (including immature NK cells, defined as DX5- CD3-, and thereby allowing discrimination between NKT cells and NK cells (NKp46+, CD3-). Furthermore, unlike many of the NK markers which also stain NKT cells, staining with 29A1.4 is not strain specific. Staining has been shown on C57Bl/6, SJL, CBA/CA and BALB/C strains. NKp46 has been shown to play a role in NK cell-mediated lysis of several tumor cells and pathogen-infected cell lines. The 29A1.4 monoclonal antibody has been shown to activate NK cells in vitro. The 29A1.4 monoclonal antibody does not deplete NK cells in vivo. Applications Reported: This 29A1.4 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This 29A1.4 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. This may be used at less than or equal to 0.5 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. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

CD335 (NKp46) Monoclonal antibody specifically detects CD335 (NKp46) in Mouse samples. It is validated for Flow Cytometry.
