CD85k Mouse anti-Human, Brilliant Violet 605, Clone: ZM3.8, BD Optibuild™

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  BD Biosciences 742807

Catalog No. BDB742807

Description

The ZM3.8 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD85k which is also known as Immunoglobulin-like transcript 3 (ILT-3) and Monocyte inhibitory receptor HM18. CD85k is encoded by LILRB4 (Leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor, subfamily B member 4) and is expressed as a type I transmembrane glycoprotein. CD85k is comprised of two C2-type Ig domains, a transmembrane region, and a cytoplasmic tail with three immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs). CD85k is selectively expressed by myeloid antigen presenting cells including monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. CD85k functions as an inhibitory receptor. ILT3 can also function in antigen capture and presentation. It is efficiently internalized upon cross-linking, and delivers its ligand to an intracellular compartment where it is processed and ultimately presented by APCs to T cells. Thus, ILT3 is a novel inhibitory receptor that can negatively regulate activation of APCs and can be used by APCs for antigen uptake. ILT3 expression is upregulated on tolerogenic dendritic cells that can induce regulatory T cells.

This antibody is conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV605 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 407nm and Em Max of 602nm, BD Horizon BV605 can be excited by a violet laser and detected with a standard 610/20nm filter set. BD Horizon BV605 is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 and an acceptor dye with an Em max at 605nm. Due to the excitation of the acceptor dye by the green (532 nm) and yellow-green (561 nm) lasers, there will be significant spillover into the PE and BD Horizon PE-CF594 detectors off the green or yellow-green lasers. BD Horizon BV605 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting brightness equivalent to PE conjugates and can be used as a third color off of the violet laser. BV605 is a tandem fluorochrome that combines BD Horizon BV421 and Cy™3.5. These conjugates are very bright, exhibiting similar brightness to equivalent PE conjugates. Due to the excitation of Cy3.5 by the green (532nm) and yellow-green (561nm) lasers, there will be significant spillover of the BD Horizon BV605 signal into the PE and BD Horizon PE-CF594 detectors off the green or yellow-green lasers.
