Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- 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).
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- 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.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
The H4B4 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD107b. CD107b is a heavily glycosylated, ~120 kDa type I transmembrane protein that is also known as lysosomal-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP-2/LAMP2), LAMPB, or LGP110. CD107b is expressed in the lysosomal and endosomal membranes of most cell types where it may play a role in maintaining membrane integrity. CD107b is also expressed on the surface of activated platelets and lymphocytes, including T lymphocytes, e.g., degranulating CD8+ cytotoxic T cells. CD107b serves as a ligand for selectins, including E-selectin, and mediates cellular adhesion. CD107a/ LAMP-1 and CD107b /LAMP-2 are carriers for poly-N-acetyllactosamines, and display the sialyl Le[x] antigen. CD107b is likewise expressed on some tumor cells and cell lines, including U937 and KG1a, and may facilitate tumor metastases.
