Description

Description: This HP-3G10 monoclonal antibody reacts with CD161 (also known as NKR-P1A), a member of the C-type lectin superfamily. The human homologue of NK1.1 in C57BL/6 mice, CD161 is expressed on natural killer cells and is upregulated in response to IL-12. CD161 can also be detected on various T cell subsets, including memory/effector CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, gamma delta TCR T cells, and a subset of CD3+ thymocytes. Finally, CD161 expression has been demonstrated on human Th17 CD4+ T cells. The function of this receptor is unclear although studies suggest a possible stimulatory role. Nevertheless, Lectin-like transcript-1 (LLT1), which is also known as osteoclast inhibitory lectin, has been identified as the ligand for CD161. Applications Reported: This HP-3G10 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis. Applications Tested: This HP-3G10 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at 5 μL (0.25 μg) per test. A test is defined as the amount (μg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 μL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. eFluor™ 450 is an alternative to Pacific Blue™. eFluor™ 450 emits at 445 nm and is excited with the Violet laser (405 nm). Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochome.

KLRB1 (Killer cell lectin like receptor subfamily B, member 1, CD-161) protein is classified as a type II membrane protein because it has an external C terminus. KLRB1 cell surface antigen is expressed by almost all NK cells and in a small subset of CD3+ve T cells. KLRB1 is a homodimeric cell surface protein, comprising two chains with molecular weights ranging from 40-44kDa. KLRB1 plays an inhibitory role on natural killer (NK) cells. Activation of KLRB1 leads to acid sphingomyelnase/SMPD1 stimulation and an increase in intracellular ceramide. Moreover, there is also an activation of AKT1/PKB and RPS6KA1/RSK1 kinase stimulation, and T cell proliferation by anti-CD3. KLRB1 acts as a lectin that binds to the terminal carbohydrate Gal-alpha(1,3)Gal epitope and to the N-acetyllactosamine epitope. KLRB1 also binds to CLEC2D/LLT1 as a ligand, and inhibits NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity as well as interferon-gamma secretion in target cells. The KLRB1 protein contains an extracellular domain with several motifs characteristic of C-type lectins, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain.
