CD38 StarBright UltraViolet 400 (AT13/5, 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 StarBright UltraViolet 400
StarBright UltraViolet 400 (SBUV400) is a fluorescent polymer nanoparticle that has an excitation peak at 347 nm and an emission peak at 394 nm, an alternative to BUV495 in flow cytometry. The StarBright family fluorophores from Bio-Rad offers an alternative to the Horizon Brilliant™ polymer series from BD Biosciences including Brilliant™ Violet and Brilliant™ UV. StarBright UV 400 is spectrally equivalent to BUV395.
