PE Mouse Anti-Mouse Granzyme A
PE Mouse Anti-Mouse Granzyme A
Two-color flow cytometric analysis of Granzyme A expression in C57BL/6 mouse splenocytes. Mouse spleen cells were treated with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899) to lyse erythrocytes, washed, and preincubated with Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD16/CD32 antibody (Mouse BD Fc Block™) (Cat. No. 553141/553142). The cells were then stained with APC Mouse Anti-Mouse NK1.1 (Cat. No. 550627/561117) before being fixed using BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655) followed by  permeabilization with BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723). The cells were stained with either PE Mouse IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555058; Left Plot) or PE Mouse Anti-Mouse Granzyme A (Cat. No. 567849; Right Plot) at 0.25 μg/test. The pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of Granzyme A (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus NK1.1 were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact splenic leucocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

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 to the dye under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free dye were removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

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.

  2. 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.
  3. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  4. Please refer to http://regdocs.bd.com to access safety data sheets (SDS).
  5. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  6. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.

3G8.5

The 3G8.5 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Granzyme A which is also known as T cell-specific serine protease 1 (TSP-1), Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated serine esterase-3 (CTLA-3), or Fragmentin-1. Granzyme A is a serine protease that cleaves various peptide substrates after lysine or arginine residues and is encoded by Gzma (granzyme A). This effector protease presents as a homodimer that is stored in the cytosolic granules of cytotoxic T cells and NK cells. Granzyme A plays an important role in inflammatory and cell-mediated cytotoxic responses against malignant target cells and cells infected with viruses or bacteria. It is released from effector cells by granule exocytosis and enters target cells at immunological synapses.  Therein, Granzyme A activates caspase-independent target cell death that is mainly characterized by the generation of single-stranded DNA nicks, loss of mitochondrial transmembrane potential, and loss of cell membrane integrity.

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.
