Description
The 14/SATB1 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the special AT-rich sequence binding protein 1 that is encoded by the SATB1 (SATB homeobox 1) gene. Central to the formation of nucleosomes, which consist of octameric histone cores with defined segments of chromatin wound around them, are the interactions of nucleosomes with nuclear matrix components. Specific genomic DNA segments that interact with the nuclear matrix are called scaffold or matrix attachment regions (SARs or MARs). SATB1 is a homeodomain MAR binding protein. It recognizes ATC sequences that consist of stretches of A's, T's, and C's on one DNA strand. SATB1 is expressed by thymocytes (especially single positive CD4+ thymocytes), T and B lymphocytes, NK cells, and macrophages. SATB1 can recruit chromatin-remodeling factors and thereby regulate chromatin structure and gene expression. Recently it has been reported that repression of SATB1 was essential for the phenotype and function of mouse regulatory T cells but inhibitory for the establishment of transcriptional programs expressed by effector T cells.
Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647 under optimum conditions, and unreacted Alexa Fluor® 647 was removed.
1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
4. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
5. Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
6. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
