Product Details anti-Ly6g Antibody (violetFluor™ 450)

Target: Ly6g (Lymphocyte Antigen 6 Complex, Locus G (Ly6g))

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This Ly6g antibody is conjugated to violetFluor™ 450

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Purification: This monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant via affinity chromatography. The purified antibody was conjugated under optimal conditions, with unreacted dye removed from the preparation. It is recommended to store the product undiluted at 4°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.

Clone: RB6-8C5

Isotype: IgG2b kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: This antibody preparation has been quality-tested for flow cytometry using mouse spleen cells, or an appropriate cell type (where indicated). The amount of antibody required for optimal staining of a cell sample should be determined empirically in your system. violetFluor™ 450 dye is excited by the violet (405 nm) laser and has a peak emission of 450 nm. The most common band pass filters for this dye are 440/40 or 450/50. violetFluor™ 450 can be used as an alternative for Pacific Blue®, BD Horizon™ V450 or eFluor® 450.

Target Details for Ly6g

Target: Ly6g (Lymphocyte Antigen 6 Complex, Locus G (Ly6g))

Alternative Name: Ly-6G (Gr-1) (Ly6g Products)

Synonyms: Gr-1 antibody, Gr1 antibody, Ly-6G antibody, lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus G antibody, Ly6g antibody

Background: The RB6-8C5 antibody binds to mouse Ly-6G, commonly known as Gr-1, a member of the Ly-6 superfamily of GPI-anchored cell surface proteins with roles in cell signaling and cell adhesion. Gr-1 is differentially expressed during development and maturation of cells in the myeloid lineage and is expression at varying stages and levels on monocytes, macrophages, granulocytes, and peripheral neutrophils. In the mouse, the RB6-8C5 antibody is typically used in combination with the macrophage labeling antibody M1/70 (Anti-CD11b) for phenotypic analysis of monocytes, macrophages and granulocytes.Note: The RB6-8C5 antibody has been reported to cross-react with Ly-6C on cells expressing this antigen (Fleming et al. 1993. J. Immunol. 151:2399-2408 and Sasmono et al. 2007. J. Leukoc. Biol. 82: 111-123) and has been cited in the literature for identification of Ly-6G/Ly-6C. Other reports suggest that this antibody is specific for Ly-6G, without cross-reactivity for Ly-6C (Nagendra S. and Schlueter AJ. 2003. Cytometry A, 58(2): 195-200.
