Description
- Description: The monoclonal antibody 1A8-Ly6g reacts with mouse Ly-6G, which is also known as Gr-1
- Ly-6G is a 25-kDa GPI protein expressed exclusively by neutrophils
- Studies suggest an important role in neutrophil infiltration, recruitment and migration
- Ly-6G associates with B2 integrins CD11a and CD11b and can attenuate B2 integrin expression and function
- The ligand for Ly-6G is currently unknown
- Unlike the RB6-8C5 antibody, 1A8-Ly6g is reported to only bind to Ly-6G found on neutrophils
- Moreover, 1A8-Ly6g has been used to deplete neutrophils and reported to have antagonist activity
- Applications Reported: This 1A8-Ly6g antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis
- Applications Tested: This 1A8-Ly6g antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse bone marrow cells
- This can be used at less than or equal to 0.125 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
- Excitation: 488-561 nm; Emission: 578 nm; Laser: Blue Laser, Green Laser, Yellow-Green Laser
- Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered
- Ly6G (Lymphocyte antigen 6 complex locus G6D) is a component of the myeloid differentiation antigen Gr-1, together with Ly6C
- The Ly6G protein has a molecular weight of approximately 21-25 kDa and is expressed by myeloid derived cells in the bone marrow
- Ly6G is a good marker for detection of peripheral neutrophils, monocytes and granulocytes
- Expression of Gr-1 in bone marrow correlates with granulocyte differentiation and maturation
- The physiological role of Ly6G remains unclear but studies have shown its involvement in anti-tumor response, and studies with neutrophils suggest that Ly6G ligation may have an inhibitory effect on local immune responses.
