The EPR10134(B) recombinant monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Hexokinase 1 (HK1), which is also known as HK, Hexokinase-1 or Hexokinase type I. HKI is a ~ 100 kDa glycolytic enzyme that is encoded by the HKI gene, which belongs to the hexokinase family. This isoenzyme contains a N-terminal regulatory domain and a C-terminal catalytic domain fused into a single polypeptide chain in the outer surface of mitochondria. HK1 binds to mitochondria through the interaction with porin, the protein associated with the modulation of cellular permeability. In glucose metabolism, HKI is one of four mammalian transferase enzymes that catalyze the ATP-dependent phosphorylation of hexoses in cells and tissues. HKI is highly expressed in erythrocytes, platelets, brain, kidney, and heart. This isozyme functions primarily in a catabolic role by mediating the initial step of glycolysis to form glucose 6-phosphate (G6P). Cytosolic HKI increases macrophage-mediated inflammatory cytokine production and acts as a pattern recognition receptor for bacterial peptidoglycan in innate immunity.
BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD® CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells. However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls. It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cell and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.
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 the dye under optimum conditions and unreacted dye was removed.
1. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
2. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
3. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
4. Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
5. 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.
