Cd56 Mouse Anti-Human, Pe-Cf594, Clone: B159, Bd, Mouse Monoclonal Antibody, Each

Details:

The b159 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to cd56. Cd56 is a heavily glycosylated adhesion protein that is present on a subpopulation of peripheral blood large granular lymphocytes that demonstrate natural killer activity. Cd56 is also expressed on a subset of t cells but is not expressed on myeloid cells, erythrocytes or b cells. This antigen is a pan-nk-cell marker. Cd56 is virtually identical to an isoform of the neural cell adhesion molecule (ncam), a structure mediating homotypic and heterotypic cell-cell interactions. This antibody is conjugated to bd horizon™ pe-cf594, which has been developed exclusively by bd biosciences as a better alternative to pe-texas red. Pe-cf594 excites and emits at similar wavelengths to pe-texas red yet exhibits improved brightness and spectral characteristics. Due to pe having maximal absorption peaks at 496nm and 564nm, pe-cf594 can be excited by the blue (488-nm), green (532-nm) and yellow-green (561-nm) lasers and can be detected with the same filter set as pe-texas red (eg 610/20-nm filter).
