PE Mouse Anti-TCF-7/TCF-1
PE Mouse Anti-TCF-7/TCF-1
Two-color flow cytometric analysis of TCF-7/TCF-1 expression.        Left Panel - Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were fixed and permeabilized with the BD Pharmingen™ Transcription Factor Buffer Set (Cat. No. 562574/562725). The cells were then stained with PE-Cy™7 Mouse Anti-Human CD4 antibody (Cat. No. 557852) and either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 554680; Left Plot) or PE Mouse Anti-TCF-7/TCF-1 antibody (Cat. No. 564217; Right Plot).        Right Panel - Mouse splenic leucocytes (SPL) were similarly fixed and permeabilized. The cells were then stained with PE-Cy™7 Rat Anti-Mouse CD4 antibody (Cat. No. 552775) and either PE Mouse IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Left Plot) or PE Mouse Anti-TCF-7/TCF-1 antibody (Right Plot).        Two-color flow cytometric dot plots show the correlated expression patterns of CD4 versus TCF-7/TCF-1 for gated events with the forward and side light-scatter characteristics of intact cells. Flow cytometric analysis was performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System.

Preparation And Storage

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

Recommended Assay Procedures

BD® CompBeads can be used as surrogates to assess fluorescence spillover (compensation).  When fluorochrome conjugated antibodies are bound to BD® CompBeads, they have spectral properties very similar to cells.   However, for some fluorochromes there can be small differences in spectral emissions compared to cells, resulting in spillover values that differ when compared to biological controls.  It is strongly recommended that when using a reagent for the first time, users compare the spillover on cell and BD® CompBeads to ensure that BD® CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

Product Notices

  1. Please refer to www.bdbiosciences.com/us/s/resources for technical protocols.
  2. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  3. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  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. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  6. Species cross-reactivity detected in product development may not have been confirmed on every format and/or application.

S33-966

The S33-966 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to TCF-7 (Transcription factor 7) which is also known as TCF-1 (T-cell factor 1). TCF-7 is a member of the High Mobility Group (HMG) DNA binding protein family of transcription factors. TCF-7 is expressed in thymocytes, T lymphocytes and proliferating epithelial cells. TCF-7 is expressed in the earliest T cell precursors and serves as a critical transcriptional regulator that is involved in the differentiation of thymocytes to become mature T lymphocytes. TCF-7 is necessary for the survival of immature CD4+CD8+ thymocytes. TCF-7 can also promote the differentiation of mature peripheral T cells to become Th2-like cells. TCF-7 may also function as a transcriptional repressor of certain target genes including CTNNB1 and TCF7L2. The S33-966 antibody crossreacts with human TCF-7.

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.
