Description
The HP-3G10 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes human CD161 which is also known as Natural killer cell surface protein P1A (NKR-P1A or NKRP1A) or C-type lectin domain family 5 member B (CLEC5B). CD161 is expressed on the cell surface as an 80 kDa disulfide-linked homodimeric type II transmembrane glycoprotein. It is encoded by KLRB1 (Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1) which belongs to the Ca2+-dependent C-type lectin superfamily. CD161 is expressed on NK cells and on subsets of CD4+ and CD8+ αβ T cells, NKT cells, γδ T cells, CD3+ thymocytes, and fetal liver cells. CD161 is preferentially expressed on memory/effector T cells. CD161 can reportedly inhibit NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity and IFN-γ production. Lectin-like transcript 1 (LLT-1), encoded by CLEC2D (C-type lectin domain family 2 member D), has been described as a ligand for CD161. LLT-1 is expressed on some activated dendritic cells (DC) and B 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. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
4. 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.
