Flow cytometric analysis of CD94 expression on human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Human whole blood was stained with either FITC Mouse Anti-Human CD94 (Cat. No. 555888; solid line histogram) or FITC Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 555748; dashed line histogram). Erythrocytes were lysed with BD Pharm Lyse™ Lysing Buffer (Cat. No. 555899). Fluorescent histograms were derived from gated events with the side and forward light-scattering characteristics of viable lymphocytes. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACScan™ system.

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).
- 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.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

The HP-3D9 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD94 which is also known as KP43. CD94 is expressed on the cell surface as a ~70 kDa, disulfide-linked, type II transmembrane glycoprotein dimer. It is encoded by KLRD1 (Killer cell lectin like receptor D1) which belongs to the C-type lectin superfamily. CD94 is expressed on natural killer (NK) cells, especially activated NK cells. It is also expressed on γ/δ TCR+ T lymphocytes, NK-T cells, and on some CD8+CD56+ α/β TCR+ cells. CD94 associates with various NKG2 receptors to form receptors for HLA class I molecules and plays a role in regulating cellular adhesion and activation. The HP-3D9 antibody can reportedly inhibit the cytolytic activity of activated NK cells.
