BD Horizon™ BV510 Mouse Anti-Human Terminal Transferase (TdT)

Name: BV510 Mouse Anti-Human Terminal Transferase (TdT)
Brand: BD Horizon™
SKU: 565229

Clone E17-1519

(RUO)

Flow cytometric analysis of TdT expression by human REH cells. Cells from the human REH (Acute B cell leukemia, ATCC CRL-8283) cell line were fixed with 1% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton-X100. The cells were then stained with either BD Horizon™ BV510 Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562946; dashed line histogram) or BD Horizon BV510 Mouse Anti-Human Terminal Transferase (TdT) antibody (Cat. No. 565229; solid line histogram). The fluorescence histogram showing Terminal Transferase (TdT) expression (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact REH cells. flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System.

Reactivity: Human (QC Testing)

Isotype: Mouse BALB/c IgG1, κ

Immunogen: Purified Human TdT

Application: Intracellular staining (flow cytometry) (Routinely Tested)

Vol. Per Test: 5 µl

Entrez Gene ID: 1791

RRID: AB_2739123

Storage Buffer: Aqueous buffered solution containing BSA and ≤0.09% sodium azide.

Preparation And Storage

Store undiluted at 4°C and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography. The antibody was conjugated with BD Horizon™ BV510 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free BD Horizon™ BV510 were removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

For optimal and reproducible results, BD Horizon Brilliant Stain Buffer should be used anytime two or more BD Horizon Brilliant dyes 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).

Staining Protocol:

1. Harvest cultured target cells into a 50 ml conical centrifuge tube. Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 10 minutes, aspirate and discard supernatant.

2. Wash cell pellet once with PBS and mix gently. Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 10 minutes, aspirate and discard supernatant.

3. Fix the cells by adding 15-20 ml of 1% formaldehyde while vortexing the pellet and incubate for 20 minutes at room temperature. Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 10 minutes, aspirate and discard supernatant.

4. Add 15-20 ml of 0.1% Triton™ X-100 in PBS and incubate for 5-10 minutes. Centrifuge at 1000 rpm for 10 minutes, aspirate and discard supernatant.

5. Resuspend cells in PBS + 1% FBS (wash buffer) to a final concentration of approximately 1 x 10^6 cells per 50 µl.

6. Prepare one tube with 50 µl of cell suspension and add 20 µl of fluorescent Anti-Human TdT antibody. Prepare another tube with 50 µl of cell suspension and add 20 µl of a matched fluorescent Ig isotype control. Mix the tube contents gently, and incubate in the dark at room temperature for 20-30 minutes.

7. Wash cells with 2 ml of wash buffer per tube. Centrifuge for 5 minutes at 1000 rpm, aspirate and discard supernatant.

8. Resuspend cells in 500 µl of wash buffer and analyze by flow cytometry.

Antibody Details

E17-1519

The E17-1519 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT), which is also known as Terminal transferase, or DNA nucleotidylexotransferase (DNTT). TdT is a 60 kDa nuclear polymerase that catalyzes the template-independent addition of deoxynucleotides to the 3'-hydroxyl termini of single-stranded oligonucleotide primer segments. TdT can contribute to antigen receptor diversity by N region diversification of rearranging immunoglobulin heavy chain and T cell receptor gene segments during pre-B and pre-T cell development. It is also expressed by certain lymphomas and leukemias.

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.

Format Details

BV510

The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 510 (BV510) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 327-nm / 405-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 512-nm. BV510, driven by BD innovation, is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 510-nm (e.g., a 525/50 bandpass filter). The dye can be excited by the UV (355-nm) laser resulting in cross-laser excitation and spillover. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.

Format: BV510

Excitation Source: Violet 405 nm
