Specificity
This antibody reacts with Killer Cell Lectin-like Receptor G1 (KLRG1 formerly known as mouse MAFA or 2F1-Ag). It stains 30-60 % of NK1.1+CD3- splenocytes, and a small fraction of T cells in all mouse strains tested (C57BL/6, BALB/c, 129/J, C3H.SW, AKR/J, SJL). (Ref.1,5)

(Killer Cell Lectin-Like Receptor Subfamily G, Member 1 (KLRG1))
Killer cell lectin-like receptor G1 (KLRG1, formerly known as mouse MAFA or 2F1 Ag), a homodimeric member of the lectin-like type 2 transmembrane receptor family that contain characteristic immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs) in their cytoplasmic domains. (Ref.1,2) These ITIMs interact with the SH2 domains of protein phosphatases such as SHP1. (Ref.3,4) Cell surface expression of KLRG1 is up-regulated by expression of MHC class I molecules. The effect of MHC class I expression is indirect, and can be mediated by interactions with class I-specific Ly49 inhibitory receptors.
