CD45RC Mouse Anti-Rat, Brilliant Violet 605, Clone: OX-22, BD Optibuild™

Description

• The OX-22 antibody reacts with CD45RC on pre-B lymphocytes, B cells, CD8+ T suppressor/cytotoxic cells, and a subset of CD4+ T helper (Th) lymphocytes
• It weakly reacts with thymocytes
• CD45RC is a high-molecular-weight isoform of CD45 (Leukocyte Common Antigen); its level of expression distinguishes subpopulations of CD4+ T cells with Th1-like and Th2-like effector functions
• Levels of expression of CD45RC have also been reported to distinguish resting from activated T cells at various stages of maturation
• CD45 is a member of the Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase (PTP) family: Its intracellular (COOH-terminal) region contains two PTP catalytic domains, and the extracellular region is highly variable due to alternative splicing of exons 4, 5, and 6 (designated A, B, and C, respectively), plus differing levels of glycosylation
• The CD45 isoforms detected in the rat are cell type-, maturation-, and activation state-specific
• The CD45 isoforms play complex roles in T-cell and B-cell antigen receptor signal transduction
• This antibody is conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV605 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes
• With an Ex Max of 407nm and Em Max of 602nm, BD Horizon BV605 can be excited by a violet laser and detected with a standard 610/20nm filter set
• BD Horizon BV605 is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 and an acceptor dye with an Em max at 605nm
• Due to the excitation of the acceptor dye by the green (532 nm) and yellow-green (561 nm) lasers, there will be significant spillover into the PE and BD Horizon PE-CF594 detectors off the green or yellow-green lasers
• BD Horizon BV605 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting brightness equivalent to PE conjugates and can be used as a third color off of the violet laser
• BV605 is a tandem fluorochrome that combines BD Horizon BV421 and Cy™3.5
• These conjugates are very bright, exhibiting similar brightness to equivalent PE conjugates
• Due to the excitation of Cy3.5 by the green (532nm) and yellow-green (561nm) lasers, there will be significant spillover of the BD Horizon BV605 signal into the PE and BD Horizon PE-CF594 detectors off the green or yellow-green lasers.
