CD38 Antibody Kit, anti-mouse,

Identification and enumeration of CD38+ cells by flow cytometryClone REAL181 is an antibody fragment derived from the full CD38 antibody molecule. It displays no binding to Fc receptors. The recombinantly engineered antibody fragments are multimerized to form the REAlease Complex to bind markers with high avidity. | Clone REAL181 recognizes the mouse CD38 antigen, a 42 kDa single-pass type II membrane protein which is also known as ADP-ribosyl cyclase 1. CD38 is expressed on a variety of hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells and is involved in diverse processes such as generation of calcium-mobilizing metabolites, cell activation, and chemotaxis. In the mouse, CD38+ hematopoietic cells include B cells, subsets of T cell, monocytes, and macrophages. CD38 expression on these cells is modulated following activation and differentiation. In contrast to humans, CD38 expression is downregulated on mouse germinal center B cells and mouse mature plasma cells. | The REAlease Kits consist of the respective fluorochrome-conjugated REAlease Complexes and the REAlease Support Kit for removal of the REAlease Complexes and optional relabeling with different fluorochrome-conjugated REAlease Complexes.
