CD1a antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN94019

Product Details anti-CD1a Antibody (FITC)

Target: CD1a

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD1a antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The antibody HI149 reacts with an extracellular epitope of CD1a (T6), a 49 kDa polypeptide associated with beta2-microglobulin expressed on cortical thymocytes (strongly), Langerhans cells, dendritic cells and some T cell leukemias and lymphomas. The antibody does not react with peripheral blood T and B lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, platelets and erythrocytes.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Other not tested, Human

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: Human thymocytes

Clone: HI149

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 20 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (2 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Comment:

The purified antibody is conjugated with Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions. The reagent is free of unconjugated FITC and adjusted for direct use. No reconstitution is necessary.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Reconstitution: No reconstitution is necessary.

Buffer: Stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, 15 mM sodium azide

Target Details for CD1a

Target: CD1a

Alternative Name: CD1a (CD1a Products)

Synonyms: CD1 antibody, FCB6 antibody, HTA1 antibody, R4 antibody, T6 antibody, CD1A antibody, CD1a molecule antibody, CD1 antigen antibody, T-cell surface glycoprotein CD1a antibody, CD1A antibody, CD1.1 antibody, LOC100156095 antibody, LOC101111409 antibody

Background: CD1a molecule,CD1a, together with CD1b and c, belongs to group 1 of CD1 glycoproteins. These proteins serve as antigen-presenting molecules for a subset of T cells that responds to specific lipids and glycolipids found in the cell walls of bacterial pathogens or self-glycolipid antigens such as gangliosides, and they have also roles in antiviral immunity. Unlike CD1b, CD1a is excluded from late endosomal compartments and instead traffics independently in the recycling pathway of the early endocytic system, and CD1a antigen presentation is independent upon vesicular acidification.,T6, Leu-6, HTA1, FCB6

Gene ID: 909

UniProt: P06126

Pathways: Regulation of Leukocyte Mediated Immunity, Positive Regulation of Immune Effector Process
