Quick Overview for FAS antibody (FITC) (ABIN94249)

Target: FAS (TNF Receptor Superfamily, Member 6 (FAS))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This FAS antibody is conjugated to FITC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Clone: LT95

Product Details anti-FAS Antibody (FITC)

Purpose: Anti-Hu CD95 FITC

Specificity: The antibody LT95 reacts with an extracellular epitope on CD95 (Fas/APO-1), a 46 kDa single chain type I glycoprotein of the tumour necrosis factor/nerve growth factor (TNF/NGF) receptor superfamily, expressed on a variety of normal and neoplastic cells. It seems that the antibody LT95 does not induce Fas mediated apoptosis, although it cross-blocks anti-Fas DX2 antibody that recognizes a functional epitope of Fas molecule.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human

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: HUT-78 human T cell lymphoma cell line

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.

Target Details for FAS

Target: FAS (TNF Receptor Superfamily, Member 6 (FAS))

Alternative Name: CD95

Background: Fas cell surface death receptor,CD95 (Fas, APO-1), a 46 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein, is a cell death receptor of the TNFR superfamily. Stimulation of CD95 results in aggregation of its intracellular death domains, formation of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC) and activation of caspases. In type I cells caspase 3 is activated by high amounts of caspase 8 generated at the DISC, in type II cells low concentration of caspase 8 activates pathway leading to the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria and activation of caspase 3 by cytochom c. Besides its roles in induction of apoptosis, Fas also triggers pro-inflammatory cytokine responses.,FAS1, APT1, APO-1, FASTM, ALPS1A, TNFRSF6
