PE Mouse anti-GATA4
PE Mouse anti-GATA4
Flow cytometric analysis of PE anti-GATA4 in mouse testis, embryonal carcinoma F9 cells. The F9 cells were either treated with retinoic acid/dbcAMP (solid line) or untreated (dashed line). F9 cells were fixed (BD Cytofix™ Buffer Cat. No. 554655) for 10 minutes at 37ºC, permeabilized with BD Perm Buffer™ III (Cat. No. 558050) on ice for 30 minutes. The cells were stained with PE anti-GATA4 and incubated in the dark for 30 minutes at room temperature. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACSCanto™ II flow cytometry system. This antibody also works in BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer I and II.

Preparation And Storage

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

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).

  3. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  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.
  5. Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.

L97-56

The L97-56 monoclonal antibody reacts with GATA4 (GATA-binding protein 4), a member of the GATA family of zinc finger-containing transcription factors that bind to the GATA nucleotide sequence. This ~50 kDa nuclear protein is expressed in mesodermal and definitive endodermal tissues such as the gastrointestinal tract, gonads, and heart. Genetic studies suggest that GATA4 regulates embryonic cardiac development in mice, and disruption of the GATA4 gene leads to defects in heart tube formation; in humans, GATA4 mutations are associated with atrial septal defects. In the adult heart, GATA4 regulates differentiated gene expression. The roles of GATA4 in endocrine and reproductive functions were recently reviewed.

PE
R-Phycoerythrin (PE), is part of the BD family of Phycobiliprotein dyes. This fluorochrome is a multimeric fluorescent phycobiliprotein with excitation maximum (Ex Max) of 496 nm and 566 nm and an emission maximum (Em Max) at 576 nm. PE is designed to be excited by the Blue (488 nm), Green (532 nm) and Yellow-Green (561 nm) lasers and detected using an optical filter centered near 575 nm (e.g., a 575/26-nm bandpass filter). As PE is excited by multiple lasers, this can result in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover on instruments with various combinations of Blue, Green, and Yellow-Green lasers. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
