The Q21-559 monoclonal antibody recognizes ROR gamma t (RORγt), an isoform of ROR gamma (RORγ). RORγt is a DNA-binding transcription factor that is encoded by the RORC (RAR-related orphan receptor C) gene. It belongs to the ROR/RZR orphan nuclear receptor family. Two protein isoforms are produced from the RORC gene by alternative splicing: RORγ or RORγt. The RORγ isoform is expressed in many tissues, including thymus, lung, liver, kidney, muscle, and brown fat. However the tissue distribution of the second isoform RORγt is highly restricted to the thymus where it is expressed exclusively in immature CD4+CD8+ thymocytes and in peripheral Th17 and LTi cells. RORγt reportedly functions as an essential transcription factor for the development of secondary lymphoid tissues. It also plays an important regulatory role in thymopoiesis and effector T cell differentiation, especially for Th17 cells.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon™ Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 407-nm and Em Max at 421-nm, BD Horizon™ BV421 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the standard Pacific Blue™ filter set (eg, 450/50-nm filter). BD Horizon™ BV421 conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue™ conjugates.
