Alexa Fluor® 488 Mouse Anti-PLCγ1 (pY783)
Alexa Fluor® 488 Mouse Anti-PLCγ1 (pY783)
Analysis of PLCγ1 (pY783) in activated human T leukemia cells. Jurkat cells (ATCC TIB-152) were either stimulated with 5 mM hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) for 15 minutes (shaded histogram) or unstimulated (open histogram). The cells were fixed (BD Cytofix™ buffer, Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes, then permeabilized (BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III, Cat. No. 558050) on ice for at least 30 minutes, and then stained with Alexa Fluor® 488 anti-PLCγ1 (pY783). Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCalibur™ flow cytometry system.

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 to Alexa Fluor® 488 under optimum conditions, and unreacted Alexa Fluor® 488 was removed.

Recommended Assay Procedures

Human Jurkat cells treated with H2O2 are suggested as a positive control; however, other cell types or methods may also be used for detection of phosphorylated PLCγ1.

The Alexa Fluor® 488-conjugated format has been evaluated using a human model system. The unconjugated form of this antibody (Cat. No. 612464) has been shown to react with human, mouse and rat cell lysates in western blot.

Product Notices

  1. This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
  2. Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).
  3. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  4. The Alexa Fluor®, Pacific Blue™, and Cascade Blue® dye antibody conjugates in this product are sold under license from Molecular Probes, Inc. for research use only, excluding use in combination with microarrays, or as analyte specific reagents. The Alexa Fluor® dyes (except for Alexa Fluor® 430), Pacific Blue™ dye, and Cascade Blue® dye are covered by pending and issued patents.

27/PLC

The Phospholipase C (PLC) isozymes hydrolyze phosphatidyl inositol biphosphate to inositol triphosphate and diacylglycerol.  The former causes release of calcium from the endoplasmic reticulum, while the latter is an activator of Protein Kinase C.  Within the PLC family, PLCγ is the only member that contains SH2 and SH3 domains.  These domains enable it to interact with receptor tyrosine kinases and become enzymatically activated via phosphorylation.  It exists as two isoforms: 1) PLCγ1, which is ubiquitously expressed, and 2) PLCγ2, found primarily in the lymphoid system.  PLCγ is essential for growth factor-induced cell motility and mitogenesis.  PLCγ1-null mice exhibit retarded embryonic growth and lethality in midgestation.  In addition, PDGF stimulation leads to phosphorylation of PLCγ1 at Tyr 783 and activation of hydrolyzing activity.  Overexpression of PLCγ is evident in several forms of cancer, and it has been identified as a key mediator of PDGF-dependent cellular transformation.  Thus, regulation of PLCγ activity by growth factors is involved in cell growth and transformation.

The 27/PLC antibody recognizes PLCγ1 phosphorylated at Y783.  The fluorochrome-conjugated formats have been evaluated using a human model system. However, the unconjugated form of this antibody (Cat. no. 612464) has been shown to react with human, mouse, and rat cell lysates by western blot.

Alexa Fluor™ 488
Alexa Fluor™ 488 Dye is part of the BD blue family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 494-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 517-nm. Alexa Fluor™ 488 is designed to be excited by the Blue laser (488 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520-nm (e.g., a 530/30-nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
