Alexa Fluor™ 647 Mouse Anti-Human TCR Vβ13.1
Alexa Fluor™ 647 Mouse Anti-Human TCR Vβ13.1
Two-color flow cytometric analysis of TCR Vβ13.1 expression on human peripheral blood T lymphocytes. Human peripheral blood cells were stained with BD Horizon™ BUV395 Mouse Anti Human CD3 antibody (Cat. No, 563546) and with either Alexa Fluor™ 647 Mouse IgG2b, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 565378; Left Plot) or Alexa Fluor™ 647 Mouse Anti-Human TCR Vβ13.1 antibody (Cat. No. 568291/568292; Right Plot). Erythrocytes were lysed with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899). The bivariate pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of TCR Vβ13.1 (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus CD3 was derived from gated events with the forward and side light scatter characteristics of viable lymphocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software.

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 unreacted dye was 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 cell and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

H131

The H131 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes the variable beta 13.1 region of the β subunit of the human αβ T cell receptor for antigen (TCR Vβ13.1). TCR Vβ13.1 is expressed on subsets of TCR αβ positive thymocytes and peripheral CD4+ and CD8+ T cells. The H131 antibody is useful for multiparameter analyses designed to study the nature of TCR Vβ13.1-positive cells including normal T cells as well as T cell clones, hybridomas, or tumors. It is also useful for analyzing TCR Vβ repertoires expressed by T cell populations collected from blood, tissues or other sources in health and disease models including inflammation, autoimmunity, responses to superantigens, tumors, and infectious diseases including HIV infection. The H131 antibody can reportedly stimulate the proliferation of TCR Vβ13.1-positive T cells. The clone H131 recognizes human TCR Vβ13.1subfamily members but does not react with other human TCR Vβ13 family members including TCR Vβ13.2 and Vβ13.3subfamily members.

Alexa Fluor™ 647
Alexa Fluor™ 647 Dye is part of the BD red family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 653-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 669-nm. Alexa Fluor™ 647 is designed to be excited by the Red laser (627-640 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 670-nm (e.g., a 660/20 nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
