      PE Mouse anti-IRF-7 (pS477/pS479)
      PE Mouse anti-IRF-7 (pS477/pS479)
      Analysis of IRF-7 (pS477/pS479) in transfected human epithelial cells.  The 293 fetal kidney cell line was either co-transfected with TBK1 and IRF-7 expression vectors (dashed histogram) or un-transfected (solid line).  After 24 hours, the cells were fixed (BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer, Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes at 37°C, then permeabilized (BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III, Cat. No. 558050) on ice for at least 30 minutes, and then stained with PE Mouse anti-IRF-7 (pS477/pS479).  Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur™ flow cytometry system.

      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 R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.

      Product Notices

      1. 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).
      2. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
      3. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
      4. 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.
      5. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

      K47-671

      Interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF-7) is a transcription factor that regulates anti-viral defenses by controlling the induction of type-I interferon (IFN) responses.  IRF-7 expression is induced in lymphoid cells by virus infection, as well as by IFN, lipopolysaccharide, and TNF-α.  IRF-7 responses are initiated by Toll-like receptors (TLR) or the cytoplasmic protein retinoic acid inducible gene I (RIG-I).  Upon TLR activation, it forms cytoplasmic complexes with MyD88, an adaptor in the TLR signaling pathways.  The TLR-dependent and RIG-I-dependent pathways activate kinases, such as IKK-ε and TBK1, that phosphorylate IRF-7 and induce movement of IRF-7-containing complexes to the nucleus, where it preferentially activates IFN-α promoters.

      The K47-671 monoclonal antibody recognizes human IRF-7 phosphorylated at serines 477 and 479 (pS477/pS479).  Our in-house testing is performed on a cell line that has been co-transfected with TBK1 and IRF-7.  Phosphorylation of IRF-7 in the transfectants requires virus infection or over-expression of a signaling molecule of the RIG-I pathway, such as TBK1.  Phosphorylation of endogenous IRF-7 in untransfected cells has not yet been detected.  We confirmed that mAb K47-671 does not cross-react with TBK1 by Western blot analysis using the purified antibody.

      PE
      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.
