Biolegend, 357536, Brilliant Violet 785™ anti-human CD269 (BCMA) Antibody, 100tests

CD269, also known as B cell maturation antigen (BCMA), is a 27 kD, single pass transmembrane protein with one TNFR-Cys repeat on its extracellular domain. CD269 is a B cell maturation factor, essential for the long-term survival of plasma cells. It is expressed by plasmablasts, plasma cells, and germinal center B cells. The ligands of CD269 are BAFF and APRIL, and its cytoplasmic domain binds several of the TRAF family members.

Storage & Handling: The antibody solution should be stored undiluted between 2°C and 8°C, and protected from prolonged exposure to light. Do not freeze.
Application: FC - Quality tested
Recommended Usage: Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is 5 µL per million cells in 100 µL staining volume or 5 µL per 100 µL of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application. Brilliant Violet 785™ excites at 405 nm and emits at 785 nm. The bandpass filter 780/60 nm is recommended for detection, although filter optimization may be required depending on other fluorophores used. Be sure to verify that your cytometer configuration and software setup are appropriate for detecting this channel. Refer to your instrument manual or manufacturer for support.
