BD Pharmingen™ PE Mouse Anti-Human Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome Protein
Clone 5A5 (RUO)

Flow cytometric analysis of WASP expression in Human peripheral blood lymphocytes. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were fixed using BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655), washed and then permeabilized BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554723).The cells were stained in BD Perm/Wash™ Buffer with either PE Mouse IgG2a, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 565363; dashed line histogram) or PE Mouse Anti-Human WASP antibody (Cat. No. 571364/571365; solid line histogram) at 0.5 µg/test. The fluorescence histogram showing the expression of WASP (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact lymphocytes. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Flow Cytometer System and FlowJo™ Software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

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.
Product Notices
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- 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.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an X-linked recessive immunodeficiency disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding WAS protein (WASP). The disease is characterized by a spectrum of clinical signs, including thrombocytopenia, eczema, susceptibility to opportunistic and pyogenic infections, and B-cell lymphomas associated with Epstein-Barr virus. Furthermore, patients' blood cells display morphological abnormalities that can be associated with an impaired cytoskeleton. WASP is a member of a family of highly conserved proteins that link signaling pathways to the actin cytoskeleton. These members include WASP, N-WASP (neuronal), and SCAR/WAVE isoforms (Suppressor of cAMP Receptor/WASP family Verprolin-homologous protein) that share two main regions of homology: a proline-rich domain and a carboxyl terminal domain that binds to the Arp2/3 complex. The Arp2/3 complex initiates actin filament assembly in motile cells and formation of the immunological synapse between activated T lymphocytes and antigen-presenting cells. WASP is a central regulator of the actin cytoskeleton in hematopoietic cells that is itself regulated by multiple signaling pathways.
The 5A5 antibody recognizes human WASP; it does not cross react with N-WASP. It has been reported to detect WASP in lysates of hematopoietic cells and cell lines, except for neutrophils, from normal donors, but not from a group of patients having mutations of the WAS gene.
