	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. \|

	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]
	FITC	Fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) has an excitation peak at 495 nm and an emission peak at 519 nm. The name FITC is a misnomer in that the isothiocyanate is a reactive form of this dye. Once FITC is conjugated to an antibody, it is simply Fluorescein conjugated. FITC is one of the most widely used dyes for fluorescent applications, therefore most instruments come standard with a 488 nm laser and FITC filter set up. FITC is commonly conjugated to secondary antibodies and used in applications such as flow cytometry, immunocytochemistry, and immunohistochemistry. FITC is relatively dim, sensitive to photobleaching and it is susceptible to changes is pH. There are better performing alternatives to FITC, like Vio®Bright 515, Alexa Fluor™ 488, iFluor® 488, CF®488A and DY-488. FITC is a long-time generic dye with no sole manufacturer or trademark.
