MaxLight™650 is a new Far-IR stable dye conjugate comparable to Alexa Fluor™647, DyLight™649, Cy5™ and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (655nm); Emission (676nm); Extinction Coefficient 250,000.
Siglec 7 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein and member of the Siglec (sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin) family, originally identified as an inhibitory NK cell receptor (NKR) and negative regulator of NK activation, attributed to ITIM recruitment of SHP-1 phosphatase. Siglec 7 is expressed predominantly by natural killer cells (NK) and to a lesser extent by monocytes and granulocytes and, like Siglec-5 (CD170), has been shown to bind to sialylated ligands of targets through recognition of sialic acid in both the alpha-2,3- and alpha-2,6- glycosidic linkage.
