PE Hamster Anti-Mouse FcεR1α
PE Hamster Anti-Mouse FcεR1α
Flow cytometric analysis of FcεRIα expression on MC/9 cells. Cells from the mouse MC/9 (Mast Cells, ATCC CRL-8306) cell line were stained with PE Hamster IgG1, κ Isotype Control (Cat. No. 553972; dashed line histogram) or PE Mouse Anti-FcεRIα antibody (Cat. No. 566994/566995; solid line histogram) at 0.25 μg/test. 7-AAD (7-Amino-Actinomycin D) Solution (Cat. No. 559925) was added to cells right before analysis. The fluorescence histogram showing FcεRIα expression (or Ig Isotype control staining) was derived from gated events with the light-scatter characteristics of viable (7-AAD-negative) cells. Flow cytometry and data analysis were performed using a BD LSRFortessa™ Cell Analyzer System and FlowJo™ software. Data shown on this Technical Data Sheet are not lot specific.

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 R-PE under optimum conditions, and unconjugated antibody and free PE were removed.

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 cells and BD CompBead to ensure that BD CompBeads are appropriate for your specific cellular application.

Product Notices

  1. Since applications vary, each investigator should titrate the reagent to obtain optimal results.
  2. An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
  3. 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.
  4. For fluorochrome spectra and suitable instrument settings, please refer to our Multicolor Flow Cytometry web page at www.bdbiosciences.com/colors.
  5. Please refer to http://regdocs.bd.com to access safety data sheets (SDS).

MAR-1

The MAR-1 monoclonal antibody specifically recognizes Fc-epsilon RI-alpha (FceR1 alpha, also known as FcεR1α or FcER1a) which is likewise known as the IgE Fc receptor subunit alpha. FcεR1α is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is encoded by Fcer1a (Fc receptor, IgE, high affinity I, alpha polypeptide) which belongs to the Ig gene superfamily. As a single IgE-binding alpha subunit, FcεR1α complexes with signal transducing subunits including one beta subunit (FcεRIβ encoded by Ms4a2) and two disulfide-linked gamma subunits (FcεRIγ encoded by Fcer1g) to form the high-affinity receptor for IgE, Fc epsilon RI (FcεR1 or FcER1). FcεR1 is expressed on basophils and mast cells. Binding of cognate antigens (allergens) to FcεR1 with bound IgE antibodies leads to cellular activation and the release of mediators, including histamine and cytokines, that are responsible for allergic reactions. Tang et al. (2019) have reported that the MAR-1 antibody crossreacts with two other mouse Fc receptor chains, FcγRI (CD64) and FcγRIV (CD16-2), that are expressed by monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, or neutrophils. They suggested MAR-1 binding is specific for FcεRIa only on mast cells and basophils and that for other cell types reactive with the MAR-1 antibody, it may be appropriate to refer to these as MAR-1-positive (MAR-1+) cells.

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.
