FOXP3 Monoclonal Antibody (236A/E7), Alexa Fluor™ 488, eBioscience™, Invitrogen™

Description

Description: The 236A/E7 antibody reacts with human Foxp3 protein also known as FORKHEAD BOX P3, SCURFIN, and JM2. Foxp3, a 49-55 kDa protein, is a member of the forkhead/winged-helix family of transcriptional regulators, and was identified as the gene defective in 'scurfy' (sf) mice. Constitutive high expression of Foxp3 mRNA has been shown in CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells (Treg cells), and ectopic expression of Foxp3 in CD4+CD25- cells imparts a Treg phenotype in these cells. Intracellular staining and flow cytometric analysis of freshly isolated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with the 236A/E7 antibody using the Foxp3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (cat. 00-5523) and protocol reveals staining of the CD4+CD25bright population. The epitope from 236A/E7 is different from that of PCH101 (cat. 72-5776). This antibody has also been shown to recognize rhesus macaque, sooty mangabey and cynomolgus macaque. Applications Reported: This 236A/E7 antibody has been reported for use in intracellular staining followed by flow cytometric analysis and IHC. Applications Tested: This 236A/E7 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested using the Foxp3/Transctiption Factor Staining Buffer Set (cat. 00-5523) and protocol. Please see Best Protocols Section (Staining intracellular Antigens for Flow Cytometry) for staining protocol (refer to Protocol B: One-step protocol for intracellular (nuclear) proteins). This can be used at 5 μL (0.

FOXP3 Monoclonal antibody specifically detects FOXP3 in Human, Non-human Primate, Rhesus Monkey samples. It is validated for Flow Cytometry, Immunohistochemistry (Frozen), Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin).
