Quick Overview for CD16 antibody (FITC) (ABIN93989)

Target: CD16

Reactivity: Human, Non-Human Primate

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD16 antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Clone: LNK16

Product Details anti-CD16 Antibody (FITC)

Purpose: Anti-Hu CD16 FITC

Specificity: The antibody LNK16 reacts with 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).

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

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Immunogen: Normal human peripheral blood granulocytes

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 20 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (2 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Reconstitution: No reconstitution is necessary.

Buffer: Stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS), pH 7.4, 15 mM sodium azide

Preservative: Sodium azide

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
