      BV421 Mouse Anti-EZH2
      BV421 Mouse Anti-EZH2
      Flow cytometric analysis of EZH2 expression in Jurkat cells (left). Cells from the human Jurkat T-cell leukemia cell line (ATCC TIB-152) were fixed and permeabilized using the BD Pharmingen™ Transcription Factor Buffer Set (Cat. No. 562574/562725) and then stained with matching concentrations of either BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 562438; dashed line histogram) or BD Horizon BV421 Mouse anti-EZH2 monoclonal antibody (Cat. No. 562963; solid line histogram). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of viable Jurkat cells. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System. Immunofluorescent analysis of EZH2 expression by human cells (right). Cultured cells from the HeLa cell line (ATCC, CCL-2) were fixed with BD Cytofix™ Fixation Buffer (Cat. No. 554655), permeabilized with BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III (Cat. No. 558050), and blocked with 5% goat serum, 1% BSA, and 0.5% Triton™ X-100 diluted in PBS. Cells were stained with BD Horizon BV421 Mouse Anti-EZH2 antibody (Cat. No. 562963, pseudo-colored red) and Alexa Fluor® 488 Mouse Anti-Cytochrome c (Cat. No. 560263, pseudo-colored green). DRAQ5™ was used as a nuclear counterstain (Cat. No. 564902/564903, pseudo-colored blue). Images were captured on a standard four laser confocal microscope. Original magnification, 40x.

      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 BV421 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free BD Horizon BV421 were removed.

      推奨アッセイ手順

      The  BD Pharmingen™  Transcription Factor Buffer Set  (Cat. No. 562574/562725) is recommended over other fixation and permeabilization solutions for use in staining cells with BD Horizon™ BV421 Mouse Anti-EZH2 antibody.

      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).

      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. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
      3. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
      4. 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.

      11/EZH2

      The 11/EZH2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the methyltransferase, EZH2 (Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2). EZH2 is a human homologue of Drosophila's Enhancer of zeste gene, an important regulator of homeobox gene expression. The EZH2 protein has a predicted molecular weight of ~85 kDa. EZH2 is a member of the Polycomb group (PcG) of proteins that are essential for the maintenance, but not initiation, of the transcriptionally repressed state of certain developmental genes. PcG proteins are a structurally diverse group of proteins with conserved functions from fly to human cells. PcG family proteins form multimeric complexes that regulate the expression of genes involved in cell cycle, DNA repair and differentiation. Specifically, EZH2 is a core enzymatic component of PRC2 (polycomb repressive complex 2). EZH2 is expressed in some lymph node follicular T cells and B cells. Thymocytes differentially express EZH2 at various stages during T-cell maturation. EZH2 interacts with multiple signaling proteins, including Vav, that are involved in lymphocyte development and activation. It is highly expressed in a variety of tumors including lymphomas as well as breast and prostate cancers. EZH2 is important in the self renewal and proliferation of numerous stem cell types including fetal hematopoietic stem cells, muscle satellite cells, hepatic stem/progenitor cells, neural stem cells, basal cell progenitors in the developing epidermis, embryonic stem cells, and some cancer stem cells.

      The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon BV421 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes.  With an Ex Max of 407-nm and Em Max at 421-nm, BD Horizon BV421  can be excited by the violet laser and detected in the standard Pacific Blue™ filter set (eg, 450/50-nm filter). BD Horizon BV421  conjugates are very bright, often exhibiting a 10 fold improvement in brightness compared to Pacific Blue conjugates.

      BV421
      The BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ 421 (BV421) Dye is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant Violet™ family of dyes. This polymer-technology based dye has an excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 407-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 423-nm. Driven by BD innovation, BV421 is designed to be excited by the violet laser (405-nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 420-nm (e.g., a 431/28-nm or 450/50-nm bandpass filter). BV421 is an ideal alternative for V450 as it is approximately ten times brighter with less spillover into the BV510/V500 detector. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
