Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- 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.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

The 1H9 monoclonal antibody clone specifically binds to human and mouse Paired box protein Pax-5. Pax-5 is a ~50 kDa protein that is also known as B-cell-specific transcription factor and B cell specific activator protein (BSAP). Pax-5 is a member of the paired box (Pax) family of transcription factors. It is expressed in pro-B, pre-B and mature B cells. Through the Groucho family of co-repressors, Pax-5 likely functions as a transcriptional repressor of non-B-lymphoid genes during the B cell commitment process. In the early stages of B cell development, Pax-5 influences the expression of several B-cell-specific genes, such as CD19 and CD20 and maintains B cell identity. Pax-5 suppression is involved in the upregulation of Blimp-1 leading to the development of Pax-5-negative plasma cells. Pax-5 mRNA is transiently detected in the mesencephalon and spinal cord during embryogenesis. Expression then shifts to the fetal liver and correlates with the onset of B lymphopoiesis. Altered forms and expression patterns of Pax-5 have been associated with some lymphoid and nonlymphoid cancers.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV510 which is part of the BD Horizon™ Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. With an Ex Max of 405-nm and Em Max at 510-nm, BD Horizon™ BV510 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the BD Horizon™ V500 (525/50-nm) filter set. BD Horizon™ BV510 conjugates are useful for the detection of dim markers off the violet laser.
