Description

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Description: The AFKJS-9 monoclonal antibody reacts with the mouse, human and rhesus monkey RORgamma(t) protein. RORgamma is a member of the retinoic acid-related orphan receptor (ROR) family, which also includes RORalpha and RORbeta. ROR family proteins are ligand-dependent transcription factors that play roles in multiple physiological processes. RORgamma is expressed in several tissues including liver, lung, muscle, heart and kidney. Furthermore, it was discovered that alternative transcription results in the expression of an isoform, RORgamma(t), which is expressed exclusively in cells of the lymphoid compartment, namely CD4+CD8+ double-positive thymocytes, Th17 cells of the periphery and lymphoid tissue inducer (LTi) cells of lymphoid organs. The RORgamma(t) isoform differs from RORgamma by three unique amino acids at its amino terminus. Therefore, the AFKJS-9 antibody will react with both the RORgamma and RORgamma(t) isoforms. Applications Reported: This AFKJS-9 antibody has been reported for use in intracellular staining followed by flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This AFKJS-9 antibody has been tested by intracellular staining followed by flow cytometric analysis of mouse thymocytes using the Foxp3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (Product No. 00-5523-00) and protocol.

ROR gamma, a NR1 Thyroid Hormone-Like receptor, has been shown to affect thymopoiesis, bone metabolism, T-cell apoptosis, and lymphoid organogenesis. ROR gamma has been shown to promote thymocyte survival by activating the expression of the antiapoptotic protein Bcl-x(L). ROR gamma is also required for the development of lymph nodes and Peyer's patches. It has been shown that ROR gamma(t), a thymus-specific isoform of ROR gamma from mouse, inhibits Fas ligand expression and cytokine secretion in immature thymocytes. ROR gamma binds as a monomer to response elements composed of a single core motif, GGTCA, preceded by a 6 bp AT-rich sequence. ROR gamma expression has been documented in mouse thymus, adipose, bone, skeletal muscle, liver, and kidney, and in human skeletal muscle. ESTs have been isolated from human tissue libraries, including cancerous head/neck, germ cell, and prostate, and normal colon, head/neck, lung, liver/spleen, and pancreas. ROR gammat t (RORgt) is an isoform of RORC.
