Catalogue number
ANT-158
Type
Rat Anti Mouse Monoclonal.
Synonyms
Lymphocyte antigen 6G, Ly-6G, Ly-6G.1, Ly6g, Gr1, Gr-1.
Introduction
Myeloid differentiation antigen Gr1 (Ly6G) is a GPI-anchored protein, which is briefly expressed on monocytes in the bone marrow. The level of the Ly6G expression in the bone marrow completely correlates with granulocyte differentiation and maturation. Ly6G ligation on murine neutrophils inhibits neutrophil recruitment, thus providing the first evidence of a function for the Ly6G molecule. Ly6G is seen primarily on neutrophils, also in a subgroup of eosinophils, differentiating pre-monocytes and plasmacytoid dendritic cells.
Clone
YRmLy-6G.
Immunogen
Ly-6G-transfected cell line.
Ig Subclass
Rat IgG2a.
Purification Method
Protein A column.
Formulation
1mg/ml in PBS (after reconstitution).
Shipping Conditions
Antibody is shipped lyophilized at ambient temperature.
Storage Procedures
In lyophilized form, for long periods, store at 4°C in a dry environment. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -20°C.
Solubility
Reconstitute with H20. Mix gently, wash the sides of the vial and wait 30-60 seconds before use.
Applications
Flow cytometry, immunohistochemistry, cell depletion.
This antibody recognizes only Ly-6G which is expressed on most myeloid cells in the bone marrow and all peripheral granulocytes. For flow cytometry, use 10 µl/106 cells. Exact titer for cell depletion in vivo (cytotoxicity) should be determined by the investigator.
Available Conjugates
This antibody is also available conjugated to biotin and FITC.
