Flow cytometric analysis of GATA3 expression Left Panel - Comparison of GATA3 expression in human T and B cell lines. Cells from the Jurkat T leukemia (ATCC TIB152, solid line histogram) and Ramos Burkitt's lymphoma (ATCC CRL-1596, dashed line histogram) cell lines were fixed (10 min, 37ºC) with pre-warmed BD Cytofix™ Buffer (Cat. No. 554655) and then permeabilized (on ice, 30 min) with BD Phosflow™ Perm Buffer III (Cat. No. 558050). The cells were washed with BD Pharmingen™ Stain Buffer (FBS) (Cat. No. 554656) and stained with BD Horizon™ PE-CF594 Mouse Anti-GATA3 antibody (Cat. No. 563510). The fluorescence histograms were derived from gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD™ LSR II Flow Cytometer System. Right Panel - Comparison of GATA3 expression in mouse Th2 and Th1 cells. Cloned D10.G4.1 Th2 lymphoblasts (ATCC TIB-224, solid line histogram) and 2D6 Th1 cells (dashed line histogram) were similarly fixed, permeabilized, stained with BD Horizon™ PE-CF594 Mouse Anti-GATA3 antibody and analyzed by flow cytometry.

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™ PE-CF594 under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE-CF594 were 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).
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
- Please observe the following precautions: Absorption of visible light can significantly alter the energy transfer occurring in any tandem fluorochrome conjugate; therefore, we recommend that special precautions be taken (such as wrapping vials, tubes, or racks in aluminum foil) to prevent exposure of conjugated reagents, including cells stained with those reagents, to room illumination.
- 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.
- For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.

Antibody Details
L50-823
GATA3 (GATA binding protein 3) is a member of the GATA family of transcription factors. This ~50-kDa nuclear protein regulates the development and subsequent maintenance of multiple tissues. GATA3 is involved in the development of T lymphocytes (regulates T cell receptor subunit gene expression) and the differentiation of mature T cells to become Th2 cells. The expressed levels of normal or mutant GATA3 are also associated with the behaviors of various cancer cells including estrogen receptor-positive breast carcinoma cells.
The L50-823 monoclonal antibody recognizes human and mouse GATA3.
This antibody is conjugated to BD Horizon™ PE-CF594, which has been developed exclusively by BD Biosciences as a better alternative to PE-Texas Red®. PE-CF594 excites and emits at similar wavelengths to PE-Texas Red® yet exhibits improved brightness and spectral characteristics. Due to PE having maximal absorption peaks at 496 nm and 564 nm, PE-CF594 can be excited by the blue (488-nm), green (532-nm) and yellow-green (561-nm) lasers and can be detected with the same filter set as PE-Texas Red® (eg 610/20-nm filter).

Format Details
PE-CF594
BD Horizon™ PE-CF594 dye is a part of the BD PE family of dyes. This tandem fluorochrome is comprised of a R-Phycoerythrin (PE) donor that has excitation maxima (Ex Max) of 496-nm and 566-nm and an acceptor dye with an emission maximum (Em Max) at 615-nm. PE-CF594, driven by BD innovation, 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 615 nm (e.g., a 610/20-nm bandpass filter). The donor dye can be excited by the Blue (488-nm), Green (532-nm) and yellow-green (561-nm) lasers and the acceptor dye can be excited by the green (532-nm) laser resulting in cross-laser excitation and fluorescence spillover. Please ensure that your instrument’s configurations (lasers and optical filters) are appropriate for this dye.
