CD276 Mouse anti-Human, Brilliant Violet 711, Clone: 7-517, BD Optibuild™

Description

The 7-517 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to CD276, also known as B7-H3 (B7 homolog 3). CD276 is a type I transmembrane glycoprotein and member of the B7 family of immunoregulatory proteins. Although the CD276 /gene transcript is expressed in nearly all normal tissues, the protein is preferentially expressed in tumors, tumor cell lines, sinonasal epithelial cells, and extravillous trophoblast and Hofbauer cells of the placenta. CD276 protein expression can be induced by activation of T and B lymphocytes, natural killer (NK) cells and antigen-presenting cells. The roles of CD276 in the regulation of immune responses, especially to cancer, are under investigation.

The antibody was conjugated to BD Horizon™ BV711 which is part of the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet family of dyes. This dye is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 with an Ex Max of 405nm and an acceptor dye with an Em Max at 711nm. BD Horizon BV711 can be excited by the violet laser and detected in a filter used to detect Cy™5.5 / Alexa Fluor™ 700-like dyes (eg, 712/20nm filter). Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there may be moderate spillover into the Alexa Fluor™ 700 and PerCP-Cy5.5 detectors. However, the spillover can be corrected through compensation as with any other dye combination. BV711 is a tandem fluorochrome of BD Horizon BV421 and an acceptor dye with an emission maximum at 711 nm. This dye offers a very bright choice for the violet laser. Due to the excitation and emission characteristics of the acceptor dye, there may be moderate spillover into the Alexa Fluor™ 700 and PerCP-Cy5.5 detectors. BV711 will also have moderate spillover into the BD Horizon Brilliant™ Violet 786 detector.
