Alexa Fluor™ 647 Mouse Anti-Human HLA-E
Multiparameter flow cytometric analysis of HLA-E expression on human peripheral blood leucocyte populations. Human whole blood was stained with either Alexa Fluor™ 647 IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 565571; Left Plot) or Alexa Fluor™ 647 Mouse Anti-Human HLA-E antibody (Cat. No. 567418/567419; Right Plot). The erythrocytes were lysed with BD FACS™ Lysing Solution (Cat. No. 349202). A two-parameter pseudocolor density plot showing the correlated expression of HLA-E (or Ig Isotype control staining) versus side-light scatter (SSC-A) signals was derived from gated events with the forward and side-light scatter characteristics of intact leucocytes. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ X-20 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 cells and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

Product Notices

  1. 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).
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
  4. 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.
  5. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  6. Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
  7. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

3D12

The 3D12 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Human Leukocyte Antigen E (HLA-E) that is widely expressed on leucocytes and some other cell types. Cell surface HLA-E is normally expressed as a noncovalent complex comprised of the ~45 kDa type I transmembrane, HLA-E heavy-chain glycoprotein, the ~12 kDa invariant β2-microglobulin (β2m) light chain, and a short bound peptide. Human HLA-E represents a nonclassical Major Histocompatibility Complex class I (MHC class Ib) molecule that is homologous to mouse H-2 Qa-1. Although structurally related to the classical, highly polymorphic MHC class Ia antigens (HLA-A, -B, -C), HLA-E shows limited polymorphism. HLA-E functions in the regulation or self-nonself discrimination of innate and adaptive immune responses. In addition to binding self peptides, the HLA-E complex can selectively bind and present peptides derived from bacterial or viral pathogen-infected cells, stressed cells, or tumor cells to elicit antigen-specific, HLA-E-restricted CD8+ T cell responses. The cell surface HLA-E complex likewise serves as a ligand for heterodimeric CD94:NKG2A inhibitory and CD94:NKG2C activating receptors that are differentially expressed on NK cells and some T cells. These ligand:receptor interactions can either suppress or promote NK or T cell-mediated responses. The 3D12 antibody reportedly binds to both free or complexed HLA-E heavy chain and can block HLA-E-dependent function.

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 520-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.
