Flow cytometric analysis of CD314 (NKG2D) expression on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Whole blood was stained with either PE Mouse anti-Human CD314 (NKG2D)(Cat. No. 557940/561815, filled histogram) or PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 554680, dashed line histogram). Erythrocytes were lysed with BD FACS™ Lysing Solution (Cat. No. 349202). Fluorescent histograms were derived from gated events with the side and forward light-scatter characteristics of viable lymphocytes.

Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- 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.

The 1D11 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to NKG2D, a 42 kDa type II transmembrane glycoprotein that is also known as CD314 and KLRK1. NKG2D is a member of the C-type lectin family and is expressed on human NK cells. This activating receptor binds strongly to several ligands including MICA and MICB and ULBP-1, -2, and -3 proteins that are expressed by different target cell types. Different from natural cytotoxicity receptor (NCR), NKG2D expression is not confined to NK cells. It is also expressed on virtually all TCR γ/δ+ and CD8+TCR α/β+ T cells. NKG2D functions as a triggering receptor involved in natural cytotoxicity mediated by normal NK cells against a variety of tumors or normal target cells. Importantly, NKG2D can complement the role of NCR in tumor cell lysis. Remarkably, the combined maskings of NCR and NKG2D can reportedly lead to a complete inhibition of NK-mediated lysis of all tumor or normal cells. The 1D11 antibody can reportedly block or stimulate the function of NKG2D-positive cells.
