Preparation And Storage
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.

The NLDC-145 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes CD205 which is also known as Dendritic and thymic Epithelial Cells, 205 kDa (DEC-205) or Lymphocyte antigen 75 (Ly-75). CD205 (DEC-205) is a ~205 kDa type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein that is encoded by Ly75 which belongs to the mannose receptor family within the C-type lectin superfamily. The extracellular region contains an N-terminal cysteine-rich domain followed by a fibronectin type II domain, 10 C-type lectin-like domains, a transmembrane region and cytoplasmic tail with an internalization sequence. CD205 (DEC-205) is highly expressed on both CD8+ and CD103+ dendritic cell subsets and Langerhans cells. It is variably expressed by some other dendritic cell types, Gr1+ bone marrow cells, B cells, T cells, thioglycolate-elicited macrophages, granulocytes, mucosal and thymic cortical epithelial cells, and brain endothelial cells. CD205 (DEC-205) serves as a pattern recognition receptor that functions as a recycling endocytic receptor. It participates in the cellular processing, presentation, and cross-presentation of foreign or self-antigens to initiate immunity or tolerance, respectively. CD205 (DEC-205) can reportedly serve as a promising target for immunotherapy including DC-targeted vaccination using anti-CD205 (DEC-205) monoclonal antibody conjugated with antigen for T cell activation.
