Quick Overview for CD16 antibody (ABIN2749017)

Target: CD16

Reactivity: Human, Non-Human Primate

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD16 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS), Immunoprecipitation (IP), Functional Studies (Func), Immunohistochemistry (Frozen Sections) (IHC (fro))

Clone: 3G8

Product Details anti-CD16 Antibody

Purpose: Anti-Hu CD16 Purified Low Endotoxin

Specificity: The mouse monoclonal antibody 3G8 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD16, a low affinity receptor for aggregated IgG (FcgammaRIII antigen). CD16 exists in two different isoforms: CD16a (FcgammaRIIIA, 50-65 kDa, expressed on NK-cells, monocytes and macrophages) and CD16b (FcgammaRIIIB, 48 kDa, mainly expressed on neutrophils). Regarding CD16-158V/F polymorphism, the antibody 3G8 detects both 158V and 158F allotype on natural NK cells.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human, Non-Human Primates

Purification: Purified by protein-A affinity chromatography.

Purity: > 95 % (by SDS-PAGE)

Endotoxin Level: Endotoxin level is less than 0.01 EU/µg of the protein, as determined by the LAL test.

Immunogen: Human neutrophils

Isotype: IgG1 kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: Functional application: In vitro stimulation of NK cell proliferation, blocking of IgG binding and phagocytosis, inhibition of cytotoxic activity, in vivo NK cell depletion.
Flow cytometry: Recommended dilution: 6 μg/mL.
Immunohistochemistry (frozen sections): Acetone fixation.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Concentration: 1 mg/mL

Buffer: Phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4

Target Details for CD16

Target: CD16

Alternative Name: CD16

Background: CD16 (FcgammaRIII) is a 50-65 kDa glycoprotein serving as a low affinity IgG receptor. Human FcgammaRIII is expressed in two forms –, FcgammaRIII-A and -B. FcgammaRIII-A is a transmembrane protein of monocytes, macrophages, NK cells and a subset of T cells. It is associated with FcepsilonRI-gamma subunit and is responsible for antibody-dependent NK cell cytotoxicity. Mast cell FcgammaRIII-A is associated, moreover, with FcepsilonRI-beta subunit. Besides IgG, FcgammaRIII-A can be triggered also by oligomeric IgE. FcgammaRIII-B is a GPI-linked monomeric receptor expressed on neutrophils and is involved in their activation and induction of a proadhesive phenotype.,FcgammaRIII, IGFR3, FCRIII
