Quick Overview for KIR2DL5A antibody (PE) (ABIN2749111)

Target: KIR2DL5A (Killer Cell Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor, Two Domains, Long Cytoplasmic Tail, 5A (KIR2DL5A))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This KIR2DL5A antibody is conjugated to PE

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Clone: UP-R1

Product Details anti-KIR2DL5A Antibody (PE)

Purpose: Anti-Hu CD158f PE

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human

Characteristics: The mouse monoclonal antibody UP-R1 recognizes an extracellular epitope on CD158f (KIR2DL5), a 60 kDa glycoprotein serving as a HLA class I ligand, and mainly expressed on a subset of NK cells and a small population of T cells. Its expression is highly polymorphic between individuals.

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with R-phycoerythrin (PE) under optimum conditions. Unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: Human CD158f-Ig fusion protein

Isotype: IgG1, kappa

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 10 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Target Details for KIR2DL5A

Target: KIR2DL5A (Killer Cell Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor, Two Domains, Long Cytoplasmic Tail, 5A (KIR2DL5A))

Alternative Name: CD158f

Background: Killer cell immunoglobulin like receptor, two Ig d,CD158f, also known as KIR2DL5, is a polymorphic 60 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein with two Ig-like extracellular domains by which it recognize HLA class I molecules. Its long intracellular domain contains immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs) that upon extracellular ligand-mediated phosphorylation serve as docking sites for inhibitory phosphatases, which results in blocking natural cytotoxicity as well as antibody-dependent cytotoxicity of the particular NK cell, and its adhesion toward target cells. Together with other killer inhibitory receptors CD158f is important for immunological tolerance to discriminate between normal and abnormal cells. Besides NK cells it is expressed on a small population of cytotoxic T cells. Expression of CD158f alleles is highly variable in the population.,KIR2DL5A
