Preparation And Storage
Recommended Assay Procedures
For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes (including BD OptiBuild Brilliant reagents) are used in the same experiment. Fluorescent dye interactions may cause staining artifacts which may affect data interpretation. The BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer was designed to minimize these interactions. More information can be found in the Technical Data Sheet of the BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer (Cat. No. 563794).
Product Notices
- This antibody was developed for use in flow cytometry.
- The production process underwent stringent testing and validation to assure that it generates a high-quality conjugate with consistent performance and specific binding activity. However, verification testing has not been performed on all conjugate lots.
- Researchers should determine the optimal concentration of this reagent for their individual applications.
- 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.

The K10.6 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Lyb-2.1, Lyb-2.2, and Lyb-2.4 (CD72 a, b, and d alloantigens, respectively). CD72 is a 45-kDa type-II membrane protein, containing a C-type lectin-like domain and ITIM and ITIM-like sequences in the cytoplasmic tail. CD72 is expressed at all stages of B-lymphocyte development except plasma cells, and it has been shown to negatively regulate B-cell receptor signaling. Analysis of CD72-deficient mice supports these results and shows that CD72 is involved in B-cell development. CD72-stimulated B cells show a transient association of CD19 with CD72, as well as an increase in Tyr-phosphorylation of CD19. CD72 is reported to be a ligand for CD5, although this is controversial. It is also reported to be a ligand for CD100 (Sema4D). The CD72 alloantigens Lyb-2.1 (originally identified as Ly-m19.2), Lyb-2.2 (originally identified as Ly-32.2), Lyb-2.3, and Lyb-2.4 are encoded by the Cd72[a], Cd72[b], Cd72[c], and Cd72[d] alleles, respectively. Lyb-2.1 is expressed on B lymphocytes of CBA/J, C3H/Bi, C57BR, C57L, C58, DBA/1, DBA/2, and SWR strains. Lyb-2.2 is expressed on B lymphocytes, a subset of peripheral T cells, and activated T lymphocytes in A, BALB/c, CBA/H, C3H/He, C57BL, PL, and 129 strains. Lyb-2.4 is expressed on a subset of splenocytes of the STS/A strain. K10.6 antibody does not react with Lyb-2.3 (AKR and SJL strains) nor with non-lymphoid tissues. Five serological specificities of CD72 alloantigens have been described and the nomenclature CD72.1, CD72.2, CD72.3, CD72.4, and CD72.5 proposed, which does not correspond to the names of the alleles. Some authors have referred to the specificity of mAb K10.6 as CD72.4.
The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV711 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405-nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 711-nm. BD Horizon BV711 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect Cy™5.5 / Alexa Fluor® 700-like dyes (eg, 712/20-nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there may be moderate spillover into the Alexa Fluor® 700 and PerCP-Cy5.5 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination.
