      PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD117 (c-kit)
      PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD117 (c-kit)
      Two-color flow cytometric analysis of CD117 (c-kit) expression on mouse bone marrow cells. C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow cells were preincubated with Purified Rat Anti-Mouse CD16/CD32 antibody (Mouse BD Fc Block™) (Cat. No. 553141/553142). The cells were then stained with APC Rat Anti-Mouse CD45R (Cat. No. 553092/561880) and with either PE Rat IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555848; Left Plot) or PE Rat Anti-Mouse CD117 (c-kit) antibody (Cat. No. 567471; Right Plot) at 0.06 μg/test. A pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of CD117 (c-Kit) [or Ig Isotype control staining)] versus CD45R/B220 was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable cells. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System equipped with a Blue Laser and FlowJo™ software. Data shown in 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.

      Product Notices

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

      ACK2

      The ACK2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD117, which is also known as Proto-oncogene c-Kit (c-kit), Stem Cell Factor Receptor (SCFR), and Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor. This ~145 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein is encoded by Kit (KIT proto-oncogene receptor tyrosine kinase) which belongs to the receptor tyrosine kinase family (RTK) within the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgSF). CD117 (c-kit) serves as a receptor for c-Kit ligand (aka, stem cell factor or SCF). This receptor is expressed on multipotent hematopoietic stem cells and progenitors committed to myeloid and/or erythroid lineages, and precursors of B and T lymphocytes. CD117 (c-kit)-mediated signaling plays an important role in the activation, growth, proliferation, differentiation, and survival of cells in sustaining hematopoiesis. It is also involved in the development of mast cells and melanocytes. The specificity and functional activity of the ACK2 antibody is like that of another CD117 (c-kit)-specific antibody, ACK45. ACK2 is reported to block CD117 (c-kit) signaling in vitro and in vivo.

      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.
