Description
The X54-5/7.1 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes FcγRI (CD64) encoded by the more common Fcgr1a and Fcgr1b alleles. The alloantigens generated by the Fcgr1a and Fcgr1b alleles, have been confirmed positive in mouse strains BALB/c and C57BL/6 and reported positive in strains 129, A, AKR, ALR, BUB, C3H, C57BL/10, C57BLKS, C57BR, C58, CBA, CE, DBA/2, HRS, MRL, NON, NZB, NZO, NZW, PL, SJL, ST, SWR. The a and b alloantigens have been reported negative in mouse strains ABH, NOD. CD64, a key receptor in the development of immune responses, has a dual role as a low affinity receptor for IgG3 and high affinity receptor for IgG2a linking innate and adaptive immunities. CD64 mediates endocytosis, phagocytosis, antibody-dependent cellular toxicity, cytokine release and superoxide generation. CD64 is expressed largely on macrophages and dendritic cells.

Put all BD® AbSeq Reagents to be pooled into a Latch Rack for 500 µL Tubes (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4900). Arrange the tubes so that they can be easily uncapped and re-capped with an 8-Channel Screw Cap Tube Capper (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4105MAT) and the reagents aliquoted with a multi-channel pipette. BD® AbSeq tubes should be centrifuged for ≥ 30 seconds at 400 × g to ensure removal of any content in the cap/tube threads prior to the first opening.
Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography and conjugated to BD® AbSeq oligonucleotide under optimal conditions.
1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended volume per test. Typical use is 2 µl for 1 × 10^6 cells in a 200-µl staining reaction.
2. The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
