Product details
References
Isotype
Mouse IgG2a
Specificity
The mouse monoclonal antibody 6D4 recognizes a common epitope on MICA and MICB glycoproteins, transmembrane ligands of NKG2D, and is able to block NKG2D-mediated activation of NK cells and cytotoxic T cells.
Application
FC (QC tested)
Reactivity
Human
Immunogen
Transfected C1R cells expressing MICA
Preparation
The purified antibody is conjugated with allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions. The conjugate is purified by size-exclusion chromatography.
Formulation
Stabilizing phosphate buffered saline (PBS) solution containing 15mM sodium azide
Storage and handling
Store in the dark at 2-8°C. Do not freeze. Avoid prolonged exposure to light. Do not use after expiration date stamped on vial label.
