Description

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

The H194-112 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD26, which is also known as, Thymocyte-activating molecule (THAM), or dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV, Dpp4). CD26 is a ∽220- kDa dimer formed of identical type-II transmembrane core polypeptides which undergo variable post-translational modifications. It is a multi-functional molecule with both ectopeptidase and signal-transducing activities. Studies with specific DPP IV inhibitors suggest that the enzymatic activity is involved in the mediation of T-cell activation events. The expression of CD26 is developmentally regulated in the thymus. Resting lymphoid cells of the bone marrow and peripheral B and T lymphocytes express low levels of CD26; bone-marrow and peritoneal myeloid cells do not. CD26 is also found on epithelial cells in the kidney, liver, small intestine, and lung. Cross-linked H194-112 mAb induces proliferation of immature and mature thymocytes in the presence of either IL-1 plus IL-2 or PMA; addition of IL-2 or IL-4 to PMA further enhances the activation.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV650 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 405-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 650-nm. BD Horizon BV650 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect APC-like dyes (eg, 660/20-nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there will be spillover into the APC and Alexa Fluor™ 700 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
