Product Specific Information

Specificity: Recognises the murine GPI-anchored protein Ly6G, a marker of granulocyte differentiation, maturation and, together with Ly6C, a component of the Granulocyte Receptor-1 Antigen (Gr-1). Unlike another commonly used clone, RB6-8C5, 1A8 does not bind Ly6C.

Target Information

Ly6G (Lymphocyte antigen 6 complex locus G6D) is a component of the myeloid differentiation antigen Gr-1, together with Ly6C. The Ly6G protein has a molecular weight of approximately 21-25 kDa and is expressed by myeloid derived cells in the bone marrow. Ly6G is a good marker for detection of peripheral neutrophils, monocytes and granulocytes. Expression of Gr-1 in bone marrow correlates with granulocyte differentiation and maturation. The physiological role of Ly6G remains unclear but studies have shown its involvement in anti-tumor response, and studies with neutrophils suggest that Ly6G ligation may have an inhibitory effect on local immune responses.
