LAIR-1 (CD305) Mouse anti-Human, BUV395, Clone: DX26, BD Optibuild™

Description

• The DX26 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to Leukocyte-associated immunoglobulin-like receptor 1 (LAIR-1/ hLAIR1/Leukocyte-associated Ig-like receptor 1) that is encoded by LAIR1, /and also known as, CD305
• LAIR-1 is a ñ32 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein with a single immunoglobulin-like domain and a cytoplasmic tail containing two immune receptor tyrosine-based inhibitory (ITIM) motifs
• LAIR-1 is expressed on T cells, B cells, NK cells, monocytes, and dendritic cells
• LAIR-1 recruits SHP-1 and SHP-2 tyrosine phosphatases upon activation
• Crosslinking of the LAIR-1 expressed on T cells or NK cells can result in strong inhibition of cell-mediated cytotoxicity
• Although it is structurally related to human killer cell inhibitory receptors, LAIR-1 does not appear to recognize MHC class I molecules and thus represents a novel MHC class I-independent mechanism of NK cell regulation
• The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV395 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes
• This dye has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences to have minimal spillover into other detectors, making it an optimal choice for multicolor flow cytometry
• With an Ex Max at 348 nm and an Em Max at 395 nm, BD Horizon BUV395 can be excited with a 355 nm laser and detected with a 379/28 filter
• BUV395 is a UV-excitable dye that has been developed exclusively by BD Biosciences
• With an excitation max of 348 nm and emission max of 395 nm, BUV395 can be excited by the 355nm laser and detected in a 379/28 filter
• This dye is optimal for multicolor flow cytometry because it has little to no spillover into other detectors.
