Description
The 13B 1E5 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to C-X-C chemokine receptor type 6 (CXCR6), which is also known as CD186, BONZO, T-lymphocyte-expressed seven-transmembrane domain receptor (TYMSTR), and Seven transmembrane receptor-like from clone 33 (STRL33). CXCR6 is a G-protein coupled chemokine receptor that is expressed on subsets of activated and memory T cells and NKT cells. CXCR6 binds to soluble CXCL16 and membrane-anchored CXCL16 expressed by dendritic cells and macrophages. The CXCL16 and CXCR6 interaction activates Akt and mTor signaling. This regulates cellular migration including the recruitment of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and may contribute to the progression and metastasis of various cancers. CXCR6 also can serve as a coreceptor for certain strains of HIV-1 and HIV-2.
Put all BD® AbSeq Reagents to be pooled into a Latch Rack for 500 µL Tubes (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4900). Arrange the tubes so that they can be easily uncapped and re-capped with an 8-Channel Screw Cap Tube Capper (Thermo Fisher Scientific Cat. No. 4105MAT) and the reagents aliquoted with a multi-channel pipette. BD® AbSeq tubes should be centrifuged for ≥ 30 seconds at 400 × g to ensure removal of any content in the cap/tube threads prior to the first opening.
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 and conjugated to BD® AbSeq oligonucleotide under optimal conditions.
1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended volume per test. Typical use is 2 µl for 1 × 10^6 cells in a 200-µl staining reaction.
2. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
3. 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.
4. The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
