Clec7a Rat Monoclonal Antibody [Clone ID: 2A11]

Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	2A11
Applications	FC
Recommend Dilution	Flow Cytometry.
Reactivity	Mouse
Host	Rat
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Dectin-1 transfected NIH3T3 cells and recombinant soluble Dectin-1.
Specificity	Recognises Murine beta-Glucan Receptor (Dectin-1). Dectin-1 is predominantly expressed by cells of the monocyte/macrophage and neutrophil lineages, but also at lower levels by dendritic cells and a subpopulation of T cells. This antibody inhibits the binding of zymosan to macrophages via the beta-glucan receptor. The low endotoxin version SM2025LE is recommended for Functional Studies.
Formulation	PBS, pH 7.4 containing 0.09% Sodium Azide as preservative and 1% BSA as stabilizer. Label: FITC State: Liquid purified IgG fraction. Label: Fluorescein Isothiocyanate Isomer 1
Concentration	lot specific
Purification	Affinity Chromatography on Protein G.
Conjugation	FITC
Storage Condition	Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C for one month or (in aliquots) at -20°C for longer. This product is photosensitive and should be protected from light. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
Gene Name	C-type lectin domain family 7, member a
Database Link	Entrez Gene 56644 Mouse UniProt ID Q6QLQ4
Background	As a major leucocyte receptor for beta-glucan this molecule may have a key role in the immunomodulatory effects of beta-glucans and in the host response to fungal pathogens. Recent work has shown that Dectin-1 may stimulate reactive oxygen production in macropahges via the protein tyrosine kinase known as Syk.
Synonyms	Beta-glucan receptor, BGR, CLECSF12, DECTIN1
