Description

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

The L120 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD4. CD4 is an ñ59 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the Ig gene superfamily. CD4 is expressed on helper-inducer subset of T lymphocytes and monocytes. The CD4 antigen is involved in the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class II-restricted recognition of foreign antigens and has been identified as a receptor for HIV. The L120 antibody recognizes amino acids 306-370 of the antigen and does not block the binding of the gp120 of HIV, but inhibits the proliferation of CD4 T lymphocytes to MHC class II antigens. The CD4 antigen is present on most thymocytes, approximately 40% of peripheral blood lymphocytes, and at lower density on monocytes. Peripheral blood CD4+ T lymphocytes are lost over time during HIV infection, and this loss is correlated with disease progression.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BUV395 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Ultraviolet family of dyes. This dye has been exclusively developed by BD Biosciences to have minimal spillover into other detectors, making it an optimal choice for multicolor flow cytometry. With an Ex Max at 348 nm and an Em Max at 395 nm, BD Horizon BUV395 can be excited with a 355 nm laser and detected with a 379/28 filter. BUV395 is a UV-excitable dye that has been developed exclusively by BD Biosciences. With an excitation max of 348 nm and emission max of 395 nm, BUV395 can be excited by the 355nm laser and detected in a 379/28 filter. This dye is optimal for multicolor flow cytometry because it has little to no spillover into other detectors.
