Description
The 2A3 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to human CD25, the low-affinity alpha subunit of the Interleukin-2 Receptor (IL-2R α). CD25 associates with CD122 (IL-2R β chain) and CD132 (common γchain or γc) to form the high-affinity signal-transducing IL-2R complex. CD25 is expressed by a subset of peripheral blood lymphocytes including CD4+CD25+ natural regulatory T cells. CD25 antigen density increases on activated T cells including phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-, concanavalin A (Con A)-, and CD3-activated T lymphocytes. High levels of CD25 can also be expressed by T lymphocytes from mixed lymphocyte cultures and by human T-lymphocyte leukemia virus (HTLV)-infected T-lymphocyte leukemia lines, for example, HUT-102. Recombinant IL-2 blocks the binding of the 2A3 antibody to PHA-activated T lymphocytes .
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV395 which has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences as an optimal dye for use on a 355nm laser equipped instrument. With an Ex Max at 348nm and an Em Max at 395nm, this dye has virtually no spillover into any other detector. BD Horizon™ BUV395 can be excited with a 355nm laser and detected with a 379/28 filter.
