PE Mouse Anti-Human LDLR

BD Pharmingen™ PE Mouse Anti-Human LDLR

Name: PE Mouse Anti-Human LDLR
Brand: BD Pharmingen™
SKU: 565653

Clone C7 (also known as IgG-C7)

(RUO)

Flow cytometric analysis of human LDLR expression. Untransfected (dashed line histogram) and human LDLR-transfected (solid line histogram) 293F cells were washed and stained with PE Mouse Anti-Human LDLR (Cat. No. 565653). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCanto™ II cell analyzer.

Store undiluted at 4°C. 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.

Product Notices

Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.

For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
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.
An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

Antibody Details

The C7 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, a type I membrane protein that is encoded by the LDLR gene. LDL is the major cholesterol-carrying lipoprotein in plasma. Cell surface LDLR controls the level of cholesterol in plasma by binding to and internalizing LDL and transporting it to lysosomes where LDL is degraded, cholesterol is released into the cell, and LDLR is recycled back to the cell surface. Hence LDLR is found in cell-surface and intracellular membranes (eg, clathrin-coated pits, golgi, endosomes, and lysosomes). Expression of LDLR is a marker for in vitro differentiation of hepatocytes from human embryonic stem cells. LDLR is suspected to mediate infections by viruses that associate with lipoprotein in the blood. Mutations in LDLR are largely responsible for Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH). The C7 monoclonal antibody has been reported to react with bovine and human LDLR, but not LDLRs of mouse, rat, Chinese hamster, rabbit or dog.

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.

Format: PE

Excitation Source: Yellow-Green 488 nm, 532 nm, 561 nm
