Invitrogen™ CD105 (Endoglin) Monoclonal Antibody (SN6), Brilliant Violet™ 605, eBioscience™

Description

Description The SN6 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD105, also known as Endoglin. CD105, an approximately 90 kDa disulfide-linked homodimer is expressed by vascular endothelial cells and some bone marrow cells and activated macrophages. It is suggested that CD105 functions in adhesion and embryonic angiogenesis. Applications Tested This SN6 antibody has been pre-diluted and tested by flow cytometric analysis of U937 cell line. This may be used at 5 μL (0.06 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. Blocking Buffers When using two or more Super Bright, Brilliant Violet™, Brilliant Ultra Violet™, or other polymer dye-conjugated antibodies in a staining panel, it is recommended to use Super Bright Complete Staining Buffer (Product # SB-4401</a>) or Brilliant Stain Buffer (Product # 00-4409-75</a>) to minimize any non-specific polymer interactions. Please refer to the datasheet for Super Bright Staining Buffer or Brilliant Stain Buffer for more information. Light sensitivity This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Please protect this vial and stained samples from light. Fixation Samples can be stored in IC Fixation Buffer (Pro...

CD105 or Endoglin is a Type I transmembrane protein, which is highly expressed on human vascular endothelial cells. It exists on an O- and N-glycosylated homodimer. Up regulation of endoglin expression has been demonstrated in tumor vasculature and proliferating cells, suggesting that it is a proliferation associated endothelial marker. CD105 binds to TGF beta 1 and 3 with high affinity but not to TGF beta 2.
