FITC Rat Anti-Mouse Vβ 11 T-Cell Receptor
FITC Rat Anti-Mouse Vβ 11 T-Cell Receptor
Two-color analysis of the expression of Vβ 11 TCR on periphPE Rat Anti-Mouse CD4eral lymphocytes. A/J lymph node cells were incubated simultaneously with FITC Rat Anti-Mouse Vβ 11 T-Cell Receptor (Cat. No. 553197), PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD4 (Cat. No. 553048/553049), and PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD8a (Cat. No. 553032/553033) monoclonal antibodies. The fluorescence contour plot was derived from gated events based on the forward and side light-scattering of viable lymphocytes. Flow cytometry was performed on a FACScan™.

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with FITC under optimum conditions, and unreacted FITC was removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

For flow cytometry of cell suspensions from peripheral lymphoid tissues, it is recommended that multicolor staining be performed to distinguish T lymphocytes from non-T cells.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  3. Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.
  4. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  5. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.

RR3-15

The RR3-15 antibody reacts with the Vβ 11 T-Cell Receptor (TCR) of mice having the b haplotype (e.g., A, C57BL, C58, DBA/1) of the Tcrb gene complex. The Tcrb-V11 gene locus is deleted in mice having the a (e.g., C57BR, C57L, SJL, SWR) and c (e.g., RIII) haplotypes. Vβ TCR-bearing T lymphocytes are clonally eliminated in mice expressing I-E and superantigens encoded by Mtv-9 (Etc-1, Mls[f], Dvb11.2) and/or Mtv-11 (Mls[f], Dvb 11.2) proviruses (e.g., AKR, BALB/c, CBA/J, C3H, DBA/2), and they are incompletely eliminated in mice expressing I-E and Mtv-8 (Mls[f], Dvb 11.1) superantigen (e.g., A). Activation of Vβ 11 TCR-expressing T cells by these determinants is dependent upon presentation by I-E. The bacterial superantigen Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) also interacts with Vβ 11 TCR, and in vivo exposure to SEA causes activation and subsequent deletion of Vβ TCR-expressing lymphocytes. Plate-bound RR3-15 antibody activates Vβ 11 TCR-bearing T cells.

FITC
Fluorescein (FITC) is part of the BD blue family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 494-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 518-nm. FITC is designed to be excited by the Blue laser (488-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520 nm (e.g., a 530/30-nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
