CD44 Mouse anti-Human, Brilliant Violet 510, Clone: 515, BD Optibuild™

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  BD Biosciences 744268

Catalog No. BDB744268

Description

The 515 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD44. CD44 is an 80-95 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein, also known as Phagocytic glycoprotein-1 (Pgp-1), or Extracellular matrix receptor type III (ECMR-III). CD44 is a member of the hyaladherin family of hyaluronan-binding proteins, with structural similarities to selectins. CD44 is the receptor for hyaluronic acid. CD44 is expressed on leucocytes, erythrocytes, epithelial cells and weakly on platelets. CD44 is also called and has functional roles in cell migration, lymphocyte homing and adhesion during hematopoiesis and lymphocyte activation. The 515 monoclonal antibody can reportedly block cellular adhesion to hyaluronic acid.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV510 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 405nm and Em Max at 510nm, BD Horizon BV510 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the BD Horizon V500 (525/50nm) filter set. BD Horizon BV510 conjugates are useful for the detection of dim markers off the violet laser. BV510 is a polymer-based dye that is brighter than BD Horizon V500. Due to similar excitation and emission properties, BD Horizon BV510 and BD Horizon V500 cannot be used simultaneously.
