Description

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Description: This R6H1 monoclonal antibody reacts with CD196 (also known as CCR6), a seven transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor expressed on T, B, dendritic, natural killer, and Langerhans cells. This CC chemokine receptor uniquely binds MIP-3a/CCL20, a chemoattractant for dendritic cells, effector/memory T cells, and B cells. CD196 is also involved in host defense and inflammation at epithelial sites. Furthermore, this receptor has been implicated in Th17 differentiation and CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cell development. Applications Reported: This R6H1 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This R6H1 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 μL (0.125 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. PE-eFluor® 610 can be excited with laser lines from 488-561 nm and emits at 607 nm. We recommend using a 610/20 band pass filter (equivalent to PE-Texas Red®). Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochome. Light sensitivity: This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Please protect this vial and stained samples from light. Fixation: Samples can be stored in IC Fixation Buffer (Product # 00-8222) (100 μL of cell sam...

CD196, also known as CCR6, is a member of the beta chemokine receptor family and is characterized by a seven transmembrane structure similar to G protein-coupled receptors. This receptor uniquely binds to macrophage inflammatory protein 3 alpha (MIP-3alpha/CCL20), which acts as a chemoattractant for dendritic cells, effector/memory T cells, and B cells. CCR6 is preferentially expressed by immature dendritic cells and memory T cells, playing a crucial role in host defense and inflammation at epithelial sites. It is important for B-lineage maturation and antigen-driven B-cell differentiation, and it regulates the migration and recruitment of dendritic and T cells during inflammatory and immunological responses. Additionally, CCR6 has been implicated in the differentiation of Th17 cells and the development of CD4+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells, highlighting its role in immune regulation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described for this gene, further emphasizing its functional diversity in immune processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can the eFluor Organic fluorochromes be used for intracellular staining?

Yes, the eFluor Organic fluorochromes can be used for intracellular staining. The eFluor organic fluorochromes maintain bright signal and require minimal changes in compensation when fixed with eBioscience IC Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 00-8222-49) and Permeabilization Buffer (Cat. No. 00-8333-56) or 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Cat. No. 00-5333-54, 00-5333-57) (as compared to live cells).

What is the difference between eFluor Organic Dyes and eVolve Qdots?

The eFluor Organic Dyes (eFluor 450, APC-eFluor 780, PerCP-eFluor 710, eFluor 710) are conventional fluorochromes. In contrast, the eVolve line of products are Quantum dots.

Are the eFluor Organic Dyes photo-labile?

As with other fluorochromes, we recommend minimal exposure to light to maintain optimal signal.
