About CD56 and Brilliant Violet 480
CD56 This gene encodes a cell adhesion protein which is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily. The encoded protein is involved in cell-to-cell interactions as well as cell-matrix interactions during development and differentiation. The encoded protein plays a role in the development of the nervous system by regulating neurogenesis, neurite outgrowth, and cell migration. This protein is also involved in the expansion of T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes and natural killer (NK) cells which play an important role in immune surveillance. This protein plays a role in signal transduction by interacting with fibroblast growth factor receptors, N-cadherin and other components of the extracellular matrix and by triggering signalling cascades involving FYN-focal adhesion kinase (FAK), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K). One prominent isoform of this gene, cell surface molecule CD56, plays a role in several myeloproliferative disorders such as acute myeloid leukemia and differential expression of this gene is associated with differential disease progression. For example, increased expression of CD56 is correlated with lower survival in acute myeloid leukemia patients whereas increased severity of COVID-19 is correlated with decreased abundance of CD56-expressing NK cells in peripheral blood. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct protein isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]
Brilliant Violet 480 Brilliant™ Violet 480 (BV480) is a green-emitting non-tandem polymer fluorophore that can be excited by the 405 nm Violet laser and collected using a 525/40 bandpass filter. BV480 has an excitation peak at 436 nm and an emission peak at 478 nm, and provides an optimized alternative to BV510. Other dyes that are similar include StarBright Violet 475 (Bio-Rad) While BV480 can be detected on the same filter as BV510, its emmision profile reduces spillover into the BV605, BV650, and BV711 channels. Additionally BV480's excitation profile will reduce cross-laser excitation with the UV laser, resulting in less spillover into UV channels than BV510. These advantages make BV480 an optimal choice for flow cytometry panels using multiple reagents on Violet and/or UV lasers. 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.
