CD74 Mouse anti-Human, Brilliant Violet 786, Clone: LN2 (also known as LN-2), BD Optibuild™

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  BD Biosciences 743736

Catalog No. BDB743736

Description

The LN2 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD74, the cell surface MHC class II-associated invariant chain molecule (41, 35, 33 kDa). CD74 is moderately expressed on B cells, and weakly on monocytes and macrophages. Other reactive cells include Langerhans cells, dendritic cells, a subset of activated T cells and thymic epithelium. The LN2 monoclonal antibody labels a nuclear membrane protein of follicular center and mantle zone B cells and a cytoplasmic protein of cells which bind HLA class II antibodies. CD74 is postulated to play a role in antigen processing and presentation through intracellular transport and expression of class II molecules on the cell surface. This antibody is suitable for staining formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections without citrate pretreatment.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV786 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 786nm. BD Horizon BV786 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect Cy™7-like dyes (eg, 780/60nm filter). BV786 is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 and an acceptor dye with an emission maximum at 786 nm. BV786 offers a bright choice for the 6th detector off the violet laser.
