Extended validation for CD161 Antibody, anti-human, REAfinity™

Specificity

Epitope competition
In order to compare the epitope specificity of an antibody, the clone being used is compared with other known clones recognizing the same antigen in a competition assay.

Cells were incubated with an excess of purified unconjugated CD161 (REA631) antibody followed by staining with fluorochrome-conjugated antibodies of other known clones against the same marker. Based on the fluorescence signal obtained, the clones were identified as recognizing completely overlapping (++), partially overlapping (+), or completely different epitopes (-) of the marker.

Sensitivity

Performance comparison
Selected fluorochrome conjugated antibodies from Miltenyi Biotec were compared to commercially available hybridoma clones in flow cytometry analysis.

Flow cytometric comparison of different clones for CD161. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were stained with CD161 antibodies and with a suitable counterstaining. As a control, CD161 antibody staining was omitted and cells were measured in the same channels. Flow cytometry was performed with the MACSQuant® Analyzer. Cell debris, dead cells, and cell doublets were excluded from the analysis based on scatter signals and 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) fluorescence. No FcR Blocking Reagent was used. The recommended titers of respective antibodies from different suppliers were used.

Fixation data
To provide an indication on how an antibody performs after fixation of cells, in-house data on staining results before and after fixation with 3.7% formaldehyde using Miltenyi Biotec antibodies are provided. Different experimental settings may lead to different results.

Specifications for CD161 Antibody, anti-human, REAfinity™

Overview

Clone REA631 recognizes the human CD161 antigen, a 80 kDa single-pass type II membrane protein, which is also known as natural killer cell surface protein P1A (NKR-P1A) or C-type lectin domain family 5 member B (CLEC5B). CD161 is expressed on most natural killer (NK) cells and subsets of T cells. In peripheral blood, CD161 is preferentially expressed on T cells of memory phenotype, but it can also be found on subsets of thymocytes and fetal liver T cells. CD161 has been implicated in triggering NK-mediated cytotoxicity, contributing to target cell recognition by NK cells.
Additional information: Clone REA631 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors.
