| Isotype | IgG2b |
| Target | Ly6g |
| Specificity | This antibody recognises the mouse Gr-1 antigen, a ~21–25 kDa GPI anchored cell surface protein bearing a single uPAR/Ly6 domain that belongs to the Ly-6 family of proteins. Rat anti Mouse Gr-1 antibody, clone RB6-8C5 reacts predominantly with the Ly-6G protein but weaker reactivity with the Ly-6C protein has been reported. However, other observations dispute the cross-reactivity of clone RB6-8C5 with the Ly-6C protein with the alternative explanation that certain sub-populations of bone marrow cells simultaneously express both Ly-6C and Ly-6G The Gr-1 antigen is primarily a marker of myeloid differentiation. In the bone marrow the level of Gr-1 expression is low on immature myeloblasts and increases as the myeloid cells mature to granulocytes. Gr-1 is also expressed on macrophages and transiently on differentiating monocytes.Rat anti Mouse Gr-1 antibody, clone RB6-8C5 has been used successfully for the depletion of mature neutrophils in vivo (Czuprynski et al 1994, Daley et al. 2008). |
| Reactivity | Mouse |
| Applications | FC |
| Working Dilutions | Flow Cytometry: Neat, Use 10µl of the suggested working dilution to label 106 cells in 100µl. The Fc region of monoclonal antibodies may bind to cells expressing low affinity Fc receptors. This may be reduced by using SeroBlock FcR (BUF041A/BUF041B). |
| Form | Liquid |
| Diluent Buffer | Supplied in Phosphate Buffered Saline with 1% BSA and 0.09% Sodium Azide. |
| Concentration | 100 µg/ml |
| Storage | Shipped at ambient temperature. Upon delivery aliquot and store at -20°C. When thawed, aliquot the sample as needed. Short term (up to 4 weeks): store at 4°C. Long term: store at -20°C. Avoid freeze / thaw cycles. Storage in frost free freezers is not recommended. This product is photosensitive and should be protected from light. |
