CD279 (PD-1), Biotin, clone: RMP1-30, eBioscience™

Description

Description: The RMP1-30 antibody reacts with mouse PD-1 (programmed death-1), a 55kDa member of the Ig superfamily. PD-1 contains the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif (ITIM) and plays a key role in peripheral tolerance and autoimmune disease in mice. PD-1 is expressed mainly on activated T and B lymphocytes. Two novel B7 Family members have been identified as PD-1 ligands, PD-L1 (B7-H1) and PD-L2 (B7-DC). Evidence reported to date suggests overlapping functions for these ligands and their constitutive expression on some normal tissues and upregulation on activated antigen-presenting cells. RMP1-30 does not block the binding of either B7-H1-Ig or B7-DC-Ig to PD-1 transfectants.Applications Reported: The RMP1-30 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.Applications Tested: The RMP1-30 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of Con A-stimulated mouse splenocytes. This can be used at less than or equal to 0.25 μg per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.Filtration: 0.2μm post-manufacturing filtered.
