Description
The B-K29 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD262 which is also known as, TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand receptor 2 (TRAIL Receptor 2, TRAIL-R2), Death receptor 5 (DR5), TRICK2, or KILLER. CD262 is a type I transmembrane protein that is encoded by TNFRSF10B (Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 10b). CD262 forms a homotrimeric receptor complex that can bind homotrimeric TRAIL (CD253/APO-2 Ligand) and transduce apoptotic signals intracellularly through its cytoplasmic death domain (DD). CD262 is differentially expressed on cells from a wide variety of normal tissues and tumors. CD262 expression is upregulated by Interferon-α (IFN-α).
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).

3. The Alexa Fluor®, Pacific Blue™, and Cascade Blue® dye antibody conjugates in this product are sold under license from Molecular Probes, Inc. for research use only, excluding use in combination with microarrays, or as analyte specific reagents. The Alexa Fluor® dyes (except for Alexa Fluor® 430), Pacific Blue™ dye, and Cascade Blue® dye are covered by pending and issued patents.

5. Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
6. 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.
