Applications
Description This antibody recognizes a protein of 20-25 kDa, identified as human interferon gamma (IFN-γ). Multiple forms exist due to variable glycosylation and under non-denaturing conditions due to dimers and tetramers. T lymphocytes and NK cells mainly produce IFN-γ. It is a pleiotropic cytokine involved in the regulation of nearly all phases of immune and inflammatory responses, including the activation, growth and differentiation of T cell, B cells, macrophages, NK cells and other cell types such as endothelial cells and fibroblasts. It has weak anti-viral and anti-proliferative activity, and potentiates the antiviral and anti-tumor effects of IFN-γ (type I interferon).Primary antibodies are available purified, or with a selection of fluorescent CF Dyes and other labels. CF Dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF405S and CF405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets, because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.
About IFN-gamma and CF405S
IFN-gamma This gene encodes a soluble cytokine that is a member of the type II interferon class. The encoded protein is secreted by cells of both the innate and adaptive immune systems. The active protein is a homodimer that binds to the interferon gamma receptor which triggers a cellular response to viral and microbial infections. Mutations in this gene are associated with an increased susceptibility to viral, bacterial and parasitic infections and to several autoimmune diseases. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
CF405S CF®405S from Biotium is a fluorophore with an excitation peak at 404 nm and an emission peak at 431 nm. It is spectrally similar to Alexa Fluor™ 405. It can be use in fluorescence microscopy, specifically its been validated in Structured Illumination (SIM), and flow cytometry. However, in flow cytometry, superior alternatives are Brilliant™ Violet 421, SuperNova v428 and StarBright Violet 440.
