Description Clone REA211 recognizes CD116, the α subunit of GM-CSF receptor, which serves as a receptor for GM-CSF cytokine. GM-CSF is involved in innate and adaptive immune responses to infection, stimuli such as presence of LPS, and inflammatory diseases, such as asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis. The GM-CSF receptor comprises of cytokine-specific α subunit, CD116, and βc subunit, which is a common subunit shared by interleukin-3 (IL-3) and IL-5. The human CD116 is a 378 residue glycoprotein with an extracellular N-terminal Ig-like domain, two fibronectin (FnIII) domains, and a 54 residue intracellular domain. Expression of CD116 is found on myeloid cells including monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, eosinophils, dendritic cells, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and myeloid leukemias. | Additional information: Clone REA211 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. |
About GM-CSF Receptor and PE
GM-CSF Receptor The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha subunit of the heterodimeric receptor for colony stimulating factor 2, a cytokine which controls the production, differentiation, and function of granulocytes and macrophages. The encoded protein is a member of the cytokine family of receptors. This gene is found in the pseudoautosomal region (PAR) of the X and Y chromosomes. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, with some of the isoforms being membrane-bound and others being soluble. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
PE Phycoerythrin (PE, R-PE) is a red-emitting fluorescent protein-chromophore complex that can be excited the 488-nm blue, 532-nm green, or 561-nm yellow-green laser with increasing efficiency and captured with a 586/14 nm bandpass filter. PE has an excitation peak at 565 nm and an emission peak at 578 nm. PE is 240kD in size and has an extinction coefficient of ~2x10^6 which makes it one of the brightest fluorophores available and a potent donor upon which to build tandem fluorophores with longer Stoke's Shifts.
