CD45RA Monoclonal Antibody (HI100), PerCP-Cyanine5.5, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

• Description: The HI100 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD45RA, a 220 kDa molecule expressed by subpopulations of CD4+ peripheral T lymphocytes, CD8+ peripheral T lymphocytes, and B cells
• The CD45RA+ T cell populations are mainly naive/virgin allowing the use of HI100 mAb as a phenotypic marker to discriminate T cell subsets
• Applications Reported: This HI100 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis
• Applications Tested: This HI100 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells
• This can be used at 5 μL (0.06 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
• Excitation: 488 nm; Emission: 695 nm; Laser: Blue Laser
• Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered
• CD45RA is an isoform of the CD45 complex and has restricted expression between different subtypes of lymphoid cells
• CD45 (LCA, leukocyte common antigen) is a receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase ubiquitously expressed in all nucleated hematopoietic cells, comprising approximately 10% of all surface proteins in lymphocytes
• CD45 glycoprotein is crucial in lymphocyte development and antigen signaling, serving as an important regulator of Src-family kinases
• CD45 protein exists as multiple isoforms as a result of alternative splicing and these isoforms differ in their extracellular domains, however, they share identical transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains
• CD45 isoforms differ in their ability to translocate into the glycosphingolipid-enriched membrane domains and their expression depends on cell type and physiological state of the cell
• Besides the role in immunoreceptor signaling, CD45 is important in promoting cell survival by modulating integrin-mediated signal transduction pathway and is also involved in DNA fragmentation during apoptosis
• CD45 is expressed on cells of the human hematopoietic lineage, with the exception of mature red cells and is not detected on differentiated cells of other tissues
• It is likely that CD45 plays an important role in signal transduction, inhibition or upregulation of various immunological functions
• Diseases associated with CD45 dysfunction include severe combined immunodeficiency and Hepatitis C.
