BD Pharmingen™ PE Mouse anti-SNAI2/Slug

Name: PE Mouse anti-SNAI2/Slug
Brand: BD Pharmingen™
SKU: 564615

Clone S43-1259

(RUO)

Flow cytometric analysis of SNAI2/Slug expression in human rhadomyosarcoma cells. RH-30 cells (DSMZ, ACC 489) were fixed and permeabilized with the BD Pharmingen™ Transcription Factor Buffer Set (Cat No. 562574). The fixed cells were then stained with either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat No. 554680, dashed line) or PE Mouse anti-SNAI2/Slug (solid line). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable cells. Flow cytometry was performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyser.

Reactivity: Human (QC Testing), Mouse (Tested in Development)

Isotype: Mouse IgG1, κ

Immunogen: Human SNAI2 Recombinant Protein

Application: Intracellular staining (flow cytometry) (Routinely Tested)

Concentration: 0.2 mg/ml

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

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.

Antibody Details

S43-1259

The S43-1259 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes SNAI2, also named Slug, which is a zinc finger transcriptional repressor first recognized for its roles in embryogenesis. SNAI2/Slug and other members of the snail family of transcription factors inhibit the expression of E-cadherin, which plays important roles in cell adhesion and in the maintenance of tissue structure. SNAI2/Slug activation and E-cadherin inhibition induces epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) at several stages of embryonic development and also contributes to the invasiveness of malignancies. Aberrant expression of SNAI2/Slug has also been linked to cancer stem cell formation, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. SNAI2/Slug is a downstream effector of various signaling pathways, including Akt, Wnt and SCF/ckit signaling.

Format Details

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.
