Description: The 6H6 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD123, the alpha chain of the IL-3 receptor. This 60-70 kDa transmembrane protein binds to IL-3 with low affinity by itself, and when associated with CD131 (common beta chain) binds IL-3 with high affinity. CD123 is expressed by myeloid precursors, macrophages, dendritic cells, mast cells, basophils, and megakaryocytes.
Applications Reported: This 6H6 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested: This 6H6 antibody has been pre-diluted and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This may be used at 5 µL (0.06 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.
Alexa Fluor 700 emits at 723 nm and can be excited with the red laser (633-647 nm). Most instruments will require a 685 LP mirror and 710/20 band pass filter. Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome.

IL-3Ra (Interleukin-3 receptor subunit alpha) belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family and is a heterodimer with a unique alpha chain paired with the common beta (beta c or CDw131) subunit. IL-3Ra is responsible for the transmission of signal of Interleukin-3. IL-3Ra and IL-3Rb chain heterodimerization is induced by Interleukin-3, which is required for receptor activation but not high affinity binding. IL-3Ra is also reported that IL-3Ra subunits are overexpressed on acute myeloid leukemia (AML) blasts compared with normal hematopoietic cells and are thus potential targets for novel therapeutic agents.
