VISTA Rat anti-Mouse, PE, Clone: MIH64, BD

Rat Monoclonal Antibody

Supplier:  BD Biosciences 566270

Catalog No. BDB566270

Description

The MIH64 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) which is also known as, Differentiation of ESCs 1 (Dies1). VISTA is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the Ig superfamily. VISTA has homology to the B7 family ligand, PD-L1 (CD274), and is likewise known as PD-1H. VISTA is expressed on naοve and activated T cells, natural killer (NK) cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, and neutrophils. VISTA functions as an inhibitory ligand. It can serve as a negative immune-checkpoint protein that suppresses T cell cytokine production and proliferation. It is also involved in regulating stem cell differentiation.

R-phycoerythrin (PE) is an accessory photosynthetic pigment found in red algae. It exists in vitro as a 240-kDa protein with 23 phycoerythrobilin chromophores per molecule. This makes PE one of the brightest fluorochromes for flow cytometry applications, but its photobleaching properties make it unsuitable for fluorescence microscopy.
