Rat Anti-ART2.2 (ADP Ribosyltransferase 2.2) (MaxLight 490)
MaxLight™490 is a new Blue-Green photostable dye conjugate comparable to DyLight™488, Alexa Fluor™488 and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (491nm); Emission (515nm); Extinction Coefficient 73,000.
ART2.2 is expressed exclusively by mature T-cells. Levels of ART2.2 expression vary between inbred strains of mice and is absent in NZW mice, in which the ART2.2 gene is deleted (1).
Applications
Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry and Immunoprecipitation. Other applications have not been tested.
Recommended Dilution
Flow Cytometry: Use 10ul to label 10e6 cells in 100ul. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
Hybridoma
Spleen cells from immunized wistar rats were fused with cells of the Sp2/0 mouse myeloma cell line.
Storage and Stability
Store product at 4°C in the dark. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C for 12 months after receipt as an undiluted liquid. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: MaxLight™490 conjugates are sensitive to light. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial prior to removing the cap.
Note: Applications are based on unconjugated antibody.
Immunogen
pME.CD8LF-ART2.2.
Form
Supplied as a liquid in PBS, pH 7.2. Labeled with MaxLight™490.
Purity
Purified by Protein G affinity chromatography from tissue culture supernatant.
Specificity
Recognizes the gene product of the mouse ADP-ribosyltransferase (ART) 2.2 gene, an ortholog of rat RT6.
