CD74 Rat anti-Mouse, Brilliant Violet 650, Clone: In-1, BD Optibuild™

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  BD Biosciences 740540

Catalog No. BDB740540

Description

The In-1 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD74, the MHC class II-associated Invariant chain (Ii), expressed in I-A+ cell populations. Although it is predominantly expressed intracellularly, it has also been detected on the cell surface of some B-cell lines and at low levels on a small number of B lymphocytes. In the mouse, alternatively spliced transcripts encode 31-kDa and 41-kDa isoforms, and the cell-surface CD74 has a chondroitin sulfate side chain which allows it to interact with CD44. CD74 is directly involved in the intracellular transport of MHC class II molecules and antigen presentation, and it affects the maturation of T and B lymphocytes.

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.
