CD38 Brilliant Violet 510 (HB7, Mouse) - Reactivity: Human

About CD38
The protein encoded by this gene is a non-lineage-restricted, type II transmembrane glycoprotein that synthesizes and hydrolyzes cyclic adenosine 5'-diphosphate-ribose, an intracellular calcium ion mobilizing messenger. The release of soluble protein and the ability of membrane-bound protein to become internalized indicate both extracellular and intracellular functions for the protein. This protein has an N-terminal cytoplasmic tail, a single membrane-spanning domain, and a C-terminal extracellular region with four N-glycosylation sites. Crystal structure analysis demonstrates that the functional molecule is a dimer, with the central portion containing the catalytic site. It is used as a prognostic marker for patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

About Brilliant Violet 510
Brilliant™ Violet 510 (BV510) is a green-emitting non-tandem polymer fluorophore that can be excited by the 405 nm Violet laser and collected using a 510/50 bandpass filter. BV510 has an excitation peak at 405 nm and an emission peak at 510 nm, and is similar to StarBright Violet 515 (Bio-Rad). BV510 is most often used in flow cytometry due to its improved signal-to-noise over alternatives like V500 and AmCyan. This dye is part of the Brilliant™ Violet dye line. BV510 and BV480 are the only dyes in the Brilliant™ Violet dye family that are not tandem fluorophores based off the BV421 polymer core, but they have nearly the same maximum excitation.
