Description

Mouse Monoclonal Antibody

The MR5-2 antibody reacts with the V β 8.1 and V β 8.2 T-cell Receptors (TCR), but not the V β 8.3 TCR, of mice having the b haplotype ( e.g ., A, AKR, BALB/c, CBA/Ca, CBA/J, C3H/He, C57BL, C58, DBA/1, DBA/2) of the Tcrb gene complex. The Tcrb-V8 subfamily gene loci are deleted in mice having the a ( e.g ., C57BR, C57L, SJL, SWR) or c ( e.g., RIII) haplotype. V β 8.1 TCR-bearing T lymphocytes are clonally eliminated in mice expressing superantigen encoded by the Mtv-7 (Mls-1a, Mlsa), provirus ( e.g., AKR, CBA/J, C58, DBA/2), and activation or elimination of V β 8.1 TCR-expressing T cells by this determinant is partially dependent upon presentation by I-E. Mtv-43 (e.g., MA/MyJ), Mtv-44 (e.g., NZW), and/or exogenous MMTV-SW superantigens also cause incomplete elimination of V β 8.1 TCR-bearing T cells. In addition to expression on conventional T lymphocytes, V β 8.2 is the predominant β chain of the TCR on NK-T cells. Staphylococcal enterotoxin B, in association with antigen presenting cells expressing I-A and/or I-E, stimulates lymphocytes bearing V β 8 TCR and selectively eliminates those T cells in vivo . Plate-bound MR5-2 antibody activates V β 8.1 or 8.2 TCR-bearing T lymphocytes.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV510 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 405nm and Em Max at 510nm, BD Horizon BV510 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the BD Horizon V500 (525/50nm) filter set. BD Horizon BV510 conjugates are useful for the detection of dim markers off the violet laser. BV510 is a polymer-based dye that is brighter than BD Horizon V500. Due to similar excitation and emission properties, BD Horizon BV510 and BD Horizon V500 cannot be used simultaneously.
