Description
The E11 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD35. CD35 is also known as Complement receptor type 1 (CR1), C3b/C4b receptor, C3BR, C4BR, Immune adherence receptor, or KN. CD35 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that exists in four allelic forms of 160, 190, 220 and 250 kDa. CD35 serves as a receptor for complement fragments C3b, iC3b, C3dg, C4b, iC3, and iC4. It enhances phagocytosis by neutrophils and monocytes and regulates complement activation. It is expressed on erythrocytes, granulocytes, monocytes, B cells, and some dendritic cells, T cells, and NK cells. It binds complement components C3b and C4b, mediating. This antibody cannot inhibit the phagocytic capacity of granulocytes. The CD35 antibody is useful in studies of cells that express complement receptors.

Alexa Fluor® 647 conjugates are highly photostable and remain fluorescent over a broad pH range. The excitation and emission maxima are nearly identical to those of APC. However, APC tends to be brighter while Alexa Fluor® 647 is more optimal for intracellular applications. This fluorochrome exhibits uncommon photostability, making it an ideal choice for use in fluorescence microscopy. Due to nearly identical excitation and emission properties but different spillover characteristics, APC and Alexa Fluor® 647 cannot be used simultaneously.

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® 647 under optimum conditions, and unreacted Alexa Fluor® 647 was removed.
Product Notices
- 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).
- 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.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- Alexa Fluor® 647 fluorochrome emission is collected at the same instrument settings as for allophycocyanin (APC).
