Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	YTH53.1
Applications	FC, IHC, WB
Recommend Dilution	Western Blot. Flow Cytometry: Use 10 µl of 1/50-1/100 diluted antibody to label 10e6 cells in 100 µl. Immunohistochemistry on Frozen Sections. Immunohistochemistry on Paraffin Sections: 1/5-1/10. This product requires antigen retrieval using heat treatment prior to staining of paraffin sections; Sodium citrate buffer pH 6.0 is recommended for this purpose. Recommended Positive Control: Placenta. Removal of sodium azide is recommended prior to use in functional assays.

Gene Name	CD59 molecule
Database Link	Entrez Gene 966 Human UniProt ID P13987
Background	CD59 is an 18-20kD GPI linked glycoprotein broadly expressed by human leucocytes and erythrocytes. CD59 is expressed by erythrocytes, and therefore staining in whole blood systems requires a higher concentration of antibody.
