Product Notices
- Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
- 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.

The E13-161.7 monoclonal antibody recognizes Ly-6A.2 and Ly-6E.1, which are allelic members of the Ly-6 multigene family. Ly-6A/E is also known as, stem cell antigen 1 (Sca-1/Sca1), or T-cell-activating protein (TAP). Ly-6A/E is a phosphatidylinositol-anchored protein of ~18 kDa that is expressed on multipotent hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in mice with both Ly-6 haplotypes. Sca-1+ HSC are found in the adult bone marrow and fetal liver, but not in the early embryo yolk sac or intraembryonic hematopoietic sites, and can be mobilized to the peripheral blood and spleen in the adult. In mice expressing the Ly-6.2 haplotype (e.g., AKR, C57BL, C57BR, C57L, C58, DBA/2, PL, SJL, SWR, 129), Ly-6A/E is also expressed on distinct subpopulations of bone marrow and peripheral B lymphocytes, myeloid cells, and thymic and peripheral T lymphocytes, on the earliest intrathymic T-cell precursor population, and in several non-hematopoietic tissues. Strains with the Ly-6.1 haplotype (e.g., A, BALB/c, CBA, C3H/He, DBA/1, NZB) have few Ly-6A/E+ resting peripheral lymphocytes, whereas activation of T cells from mice of both Ly-6 haplotypes leads to strong expression of the Sca-1 antigen. Studies with the D7 antibody have demonstrated that Ly-6A/E may be involved in the regulation of B and T lymphocyte responses, and it appears to be required for T-cell receptor-mediated T-cell activation. Purified E13-161.7 mAb can block binding of FITC-conjugated D7 antibody (anti-Ly-6A/E) to mouse splenocytes, but purified mAb D7 is unable to block binding of FITC-conjugated E13-161.7 antibody. Anti-Ly-6A/E (Sca-1) mAb may be used in combination with a Mouse Lineage Antibody Panel (e.g., Cat. No. 559971) to identify HSC.
This antibody is routinely tested by flow cytometric analysis. Other applications were tested at BD Biosciences Pharmingen during antibody development only or reported in the literature.
