Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse anti-LAT (pY171)
Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse anti-LAT (pY171)
Analysis of LAT (pY171) in human peripheral blood lymphocytes.  Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were either stimulated by cross-linking of CD3 and CD28 with NA/LE Mouse anti-Human CD3 mAb UCHT1 (Cat. No. 555329) and NA/LE Mouse anti-Human CD28 mAb CD28.2 (Cat. No. 555725) on ice for 15 minutes followed by Purified Goat anti-Mouse Ig (Cat. No. 553998) on ice for 15 minutes, and then allowed to undergo phosphorylation at 37°C for 1-2 minutes (shaded histogram) or unstimulated (open histogram).  The cells were fixed (BD Cytofix™ buffer, Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes at 37°C, permeabilized (BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III, Cat. No. 558050) on ice for 30 minutes, blocked with normal mouse immunoglobulin, and then stained with Alexa Fluor® 647 Mouse anti-LAT (pY171) and PE Mouse anti-human CD3 mAb UCHT1 (Cat. No. 555333).  The figure displays the upregulated phosphorylation of LAT in activated CD3-positive T lymphocytes.  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 antibody was conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 647 under optimum conditions, and unreacted Alexa Fluor® 647 was removed. The monoclonal antibody was purified from tissue culture supernatant or ascites by affinity chromatography.

I58-1169

Engagement of the T cell receptor (TCR) induces signal transduction pathways that enhance gene transcription and cellular proliferation and differentiation.  TCR ligation results in the recruitment and activation of multiple protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs), including lck, fyn, and ZAP70.  Adaptor proteins, such as Grb2 and SLP-76, relay the signal to downstream effector molecules.  LAT (linker for activation of T cells) is a substrate of the activated ZAP70 and functions to bridge the activated TCR and its associated PTKs with tyrosine kinase substrates.  LAT is expressed as 36- and 38-kDa forms that result from post-translational modification, and as a 42-kDa form that results from alternative splicing.  LAT is an integral membrane protein that is phosphorylated at five tyrosine sites upon TCR ligation.  Following phosphorylation, LAT binds a number of important signaling molecules, including Grb2, Vav, PLCγ1, and the p85 subunit of PI3K.  Multiple studies have shown that functional LAT is required for T lymphocyte activation and thymocyte development.

The I58-1169 monoclonal antibody recognizes the phosphorylated tyrosine 171 (pY171) of LAT, which is one of the phosphotyrosine sites required for binding phosphoinositide 3-kinase, Grb2, and Gads.

Alexa Fluor™ 647
Alexa Fluor™ 647 Dye is part of the BD red family of dyes. This is a small organic fluorochrome with an excitation maximum (Ex Max) at 653-nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 669-nm. Alexa Fluor 647 is designed to be excited by the Red laser (627-640 nm) and detected using an optical filter centered near 520-nm (e.g., a 660/20 nm bandpass filter). Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
