CD161f Rat anti-Mouse, Brilliant Violet 421, Clone: C8, BD

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Brand:  BD Biosciences 566304

Product Code. 15844929

Description

The C8 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes C57BL/6 mouse CD161 antigen-like family member F (CD161f ). CD161f is also known as Natural killer cell surface protein NKR-P1F (Nkrp1f), and is encoded by Klrb1f /(Killer cell lectin-like receptor subfamily B member 1F). CD161f is expressed on natural killer (NK) cells, and some dendritic cells and activated lymphocytes. CD161f binds to C-type lectin related protein c, d, and g (Clr-c, d, g) which are expressed on several cell types including dendritic cells, B cells, and activated T cells. CD161f-mediated signaling can reportedly costimulate T cell proliferation and IL-2 production, and may play a role in dendritic cell maturation.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 407nm and Em Max at 421nm, BD Horizon BV421 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the standard Pacific Blue™ filter set (eg, 450/50nm filter). BD Horizon BV421 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue conjugates. BV421 is a polymer-based dye excited by the violet laser and is one of the brightest fluorochromes offered by BD Biosciences. Conjugates are typically 10 times brighter than Pacific Blue™ conjugates and are often as bright as or brighter than PE conjugates. Due to nearly identical excitation and emission properties but different spillover characteristics, BD Horizon BV421, Pacific Blue™, and BD Horizon™ V450 cannot be used simultaneously.
