Clone 245610

(RUO)

Flow cytometric analysis of PE Mouse anti-Sox2 in H9 cells. H9 human embryonic stem (ES) cells (WiCell, Madison, WI) were fixed (BD Cytofix™ buffer, Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes at 37°C, permeabilized with BD™ Phosflow Perm Buffer III (Cat. No. 558050) on ice for 30 minutes, and then stained with either PE Mouse anti-Sox2 (solid line) or PE Mouse IgG2a Isotype Control (dashed line). Any of the three BD™ Phosflow permeabilization buffers may be used with this antibody: BD™ Phosflow Perm/Wash Buffer I (Cat. No. 557885), BD™ Phosflow Perm Buffer II (Cat. No. 558052), or BD™ Phosflow Perm Buffer III (Cat. No. 558050). Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCanto™ II flow cytometry system.

Preparation And Storage

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

Recommended Assay Procedures

Either BD Cytofix™ fixation buffer or BD™ Phosflow Fix Buffer I may be used for cell fixation. Any of the three BD™ Phosflow permeabilization buffers may be used with this antibody: BD™ Phosflow Perm/Wash Buffer I (Cat. No. 557885), BD™ Phosflow Perm Buffer II (Cat. No. 558052), or BD™ Phosflow Perm Buffer III (Cat. No. 558050).

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).

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.
Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

Antibody Details

245610

The monoclonal antibody 245610 recognizes the Sox2 transcription factor. Sox2 [SRY (sex determining region Y)-box 2] is a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors. Sox2 is required for the maintenance of the undifferentiated state of pluripotent stem cells. Complexes of Sox2 with the homeobox transcription factors Oct3/4 and/or Nanog bind to the promoters of a network of genes that are involved in the maintenance of pluripotency and self renewal in stem cells. The 245610 antibody recognizes both human and mouse proteins. Sox2 is also a marker of neural stem cells during embryonic development and in the adult brain.

Format Details

R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
