APC Anti-Mouse CD6 Antibody (OX-129)

CD6, a 100 kD monomeric T cell surface glycoprotein, is a member of the scavenger receptor cysteine-rich protein superfamily. It is expressed on mouse thymocytes and splenic T cells and neurons, but not on splenic B cells. CD6 has a long cytoplasmic tail in mice, with two proline-rich domains that interact with the -SH3 domain binding sequence. CD6 binding to its ligand, CD166 (ALCAM), serves as a costimulatory molecule through its interaction with SLP-76. CD6 mediated signaling may contribute to thymocyte survival and functional avidity in mice and men.

Volume per test: 5μL. Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by flow cytometric analysis. The amount of the reagent is suggested to be used 5 µL of antibody per test (million cells in 100 µL staining volume or per 100 µL of whole blood) . Please check your vial before the experiment. Since applications vary, the appropriate dilutions must be determined for individual use.

APC is designed to be excited by the Red (627-640 nm) laser and detected using an optical filter centered near 660 nm (e.g., a 660/20 nm bandpass filter) .
