Product Specific Information

Description: This 11D5F4 monoclonal antibody reacts with rat CD314, which is also known as NKG2D. This C-type lectin-like type II transmembrane protein is expressed on NK cells, subsets of T lymphocytes (e.g., CD8+ T cells and gammadelta T cells), NK T cells, and activated macrophages. The frequency of cells expressing NK2GD has been shown to vary among different rat strains. This receptor is involved in activating NK cell cytotoxicity, and has been reported to bind the MHC Class I-related ligands RAE-1L and RRLT to mediate allograft rejection in the rat.

The 11D5F4 antibody has been reported to block killing and IFN gamma secretion by NK cells co-cultured with dendritic cells.

Applications Reported: This 11D5F4 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested: This 11D5F4 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal rat peripheral blood cells. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.125 µg per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

Excitation: 488-561 nm; Emission: 578 nm; Laser: Blue Laser, Green Laser, Yellow-Green Laser.

Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.

Target Information

Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes that can mediate lysis of certain tumor cells and virus-infected cells without previous activation. NK cells can regulate specific humoral and cell-mediated immunity, and preferentially express several calcium-dependent (C-type) lectins, which have been implicated in the regulation of NK cell function. The NK gene encodes a member of the NKG2 family, and the encoded transmembrane protein is characterized by a type II membrane orientation (extracellular C terminus) and the presence of a C-type lectin domain. The NKG2 gene family is located within the NK complex, a region that contains several C-type lectin genes preferentially expressed in NK cells.
