Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
This antibody conjugate is suitable for intracellular staining of human cell lines and peripheral blood mononuclear cells using BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer. Any of the three BD Phosflow™ permeabilization buffers may be used.
BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (Compensation). When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD® CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells. However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls. It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cells and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.
Product Notices
- This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- 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.
- Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

The K10-895.12.50 monoclonal antibody recognizes the phosphorylated serine 529 (pS529) in the transactivation domain of the human NF-κB p65 subunit. Nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) is a ubiquitously expressed transcription factor that regulates the expression of many other genes. It is crucial for cellular responses to a variety of stimuli including stress and microbial pathogens that lead to immunity, inflammation, proliferation, differentiation, survival, apoptosis, and tumorigenesis. The most studied NF-κB complex consists of the p50 (also known as NF-κB1) and p65 (also known as REL-A) subunits, both containing a 300-amino acid region with homology to the Rel proto-oncogene product (RH domain). The RH domain contains motifs for dimerization, nuclear localization, and binding to specific DNA sequences. In addition to the RH domain, the p65 subunit contains the transactivation domain, which is responsible for the interaction with the inhibitor IκB and which contains phosphorylation sites. In most cell types, the p50/p65 heterodimer is located within the cytoplasm complexed to IκB. This complex prevents nuclear translocation and activity of NF-κB. In response to stimuli such as cytokines, LPS, DNA damage, and microbial infections, IκB is phosphorylated at critical residues. This phosphorylation induces dissociation of the IκB/NF-κB complex, allowing the free heterodimeric NF-κB to translocate to the nucleus. Furthermore, optimal activation of NF-κB requires phosphorylation in the transactivation domain of p65. In the nucleus, activated NF-κB dimers bind to the κB sites within promoters and enhancers and function as transcriptional regulators.
