300.19 cell line transfected with the CD229 full-length DNA
CD229 is a 100-120 kD glycoprotein. It is a member of the SLAM family, a CD2 subset of the Ig superfamily, known as Ly9 or SLAMF3. CD229 is expressed on T cells, B cells, NK cells, and thymocytes. It functions as a homophilic adhesion molecule through binding to CD229 itself. The cytoplasmic tail of CD229 binds to SAP and Grb2 proteins. CD229 is involved in enhancing T cell activation and Th2 polarization. HLy9.1.25 antibody recognizes epitope A in the first Ig domain of Ly9 molecule. Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Flow Cytometry: Neat, 5ul labels 10e6 cells in 100ul or 100ul whole blood. Optimal working dilutions to be determined by researcher. Storage and Stability: Store product at 4C in the dark. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4C for 12 months after receipt as an undiluted liquid. Dilute required amount only prior to immediate use. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer. Caution: PE conjugates are sensitive to light.
