Product Specific Information

Description: The dG9 antibody clone reacts with human perforin (pore-forming protein, pfp). Perforin is one of the cytolytic mediators present in the cytoplasmic granules of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) and natural killer cells (NK). Perforin is involved in the killing function by CTLs and NKs and has an important role in the immune response against tumors and virus infections.

Applications Reported: This dG9 (delta G9) antibody has been reported for use in intracellular staining followed by flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested: This dG9 (delta G9) antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by intracellular staining followed by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells using the Intracellular Fixation & Permeabilization Buffer Set (Product # 88-8824-00) and protocol. Please refer to BestProtocols®: Protocol A: Two step protocol for (cytoplasmic) intracellular proteins located under the Resource Tab online. This can be used at 5 µL (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.

eFluor® 450 is an alternative to Pacific Blue®. eFluor® 450 emits at 445 nm and is excited with the Violet laser (405 nm). Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome.

Excitation: 405 nm; Emission: 445 nm; Laser: Violet Laser.

Filtration: 0.2 µm post-manufacturing filtered.

Target Information

Perforin is one of the major cytolytic proteins of cytolytic granules. Perforin is a cytolytic mediator and is stored in and released by cytoplasmic granules. Moreover, perforin is involved in immune defense against tumors and virus infections as mediated by cytotoxic lymphocytes. Perforin is a 555 amino acid protein with a 21 amino acid signal peptide, and has a molecular weight of 70 to 75 kD. Perforin is a pore forming protein with a mechanism of transmembrane channel formation similar to C9, and homology between perforin and C9 have been demonstrated. Studies show that perforin is expressed only in killer cell lines and not in helper T lymphocytes or other tumor cells tested. Perforin is known to be a key effector molecule for T-cell- and natural killer-cell-mediated cytolysis. Defects in the perforin gene cause familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 2 (HPLH2), a rare and lethal autosomal recessive disorder of early childhood. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of perforin.
