KIT antibody (FITC)

Catalog No. ABIN114257

Product Details anti-KIT Antibody (FITC)

Target: KIT (Mast/stem Cell Growth Factor Receptor (KIT))

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rat

Characteristics: Absorption / Emission: 495 nm / 528 nm

Purification: Protein G Chromatography.

Immunogen: IL-3 dependent mast cells derived from WB- +/+ mice. Donor: Wistar spleen. Fusion Partner: X63.653. Ag8.

Clone: ACK4

Isotype: IgG2a

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow Cytometry.
Other applications not tested.
Optimal dilutions are dependent on conditions and should be determined by the user.

Protocol: Method: 1. Prepare a cell suspension in media A. For cell preparations, deplete the red blood cellpopulation with cell separation medium. 2. Wash 2 times. 3. Resuspend the cells to a concentration of 2x10e7 cells/ml in media A. Add 50 µl of thissuspension to each tube (each tube will then contain 1 x 10e6 cells, representing 1 test). 4. To each tube, add 1 µg* of ABIN114257 per 10e6 cells. 5. Vortex the tubes to ensure thorough mixing of antibody and cells. 6. Incubate the tubes for 30 minutes at 4°C. (It is recommended that the tubes are protected from light, since most fluorochromes arelight sensitive. )7. Wash 2 times at 4°C. 8. Resuspend the cell pellet in 50 µl ice cold media B. 9. Transfer to suitable tubes for flow cytometric analysis containing 15 µl of propidiumiodide at 0. 5 mg/ml in PBS. This stains dead cells by intercalating in DNA. Media:

Background: CD117 or c-kit is a receptor tyrosine kinase. The ligand for this receptor is steel factor (stem cell factor), which exists in both soluble and membrane form. The interaction between steel factor and c-kit is essential for the development of hematopoietic, gonadal and pigment stem cells.Synonyms: KIT, Mast/stem cell growth factor receptor, Proto-Oncogene Tyrosine-Protein Kinase, SCFR
