Description: This 22F6 monoclonal antibody reacts with human, mouse and canine Helios. Helios is a zinc-finger transcription factor first identified for its similarity to Ikaros. It is expressed in hematopoietic stem cells in both the embryo and adult mice. While the highest expression is found in regulatory T cells, Helios is not expressed in mature B cells, dendritic cells or myeloid cells. Helios can form a homodimer as well as heterodimerize with other Ikaros family members to regulate transcription. Eight isoforms of Helios exist, some of which possess a dominant-negative function that has also been found to be upregulated in lymphoid malignancies, including T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
22F6 has been reported to cross react with rat Helios.
Applications Reported: This 22F6 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.
Applications Tested: This 22F6 antibody has been pre-diluted and tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse lymph node cells using the Foxp3/Transcription Factor Staining Buffer Set (Product # 00-5523-00) and protocol. Please refer to "Staining Intracellular Antigens for Flow Cytometry, Protocol B: One step protocol for intracellular (nuclear) proteins" located at www.thermofisher.com/flowprotocols . 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.
Light sensitivity: This tandem dye is sensitive to photo-induced oxidation. Please protect this vial and stained samples from light.
Fixation: Samples can be stored in IC Fixation Buffer (Product # 00-8222-49) (100 µL of cell sample + 100 µL of IC Fixation Buffer) or 1-step Fix/Lyse Solution (Product # 00-5333-57) for up to 3 days in the dark at 4°C with minimal impact on brightness and FRET efficiency/compensation. Some generalizations regarding fluorophore performance after fixation can be made, but clone specific performance should be determined empirically.
Excitation: 488-561 nm; Emission: 667 nm; Laser: Blue Laser, Green Laser, Yellow-Green Laser.
This gene encodes a member of the Ikaros family of zinc-finger proteins. Three members of this protein family (Ikaros, Aiolos and Helios) are hematopoietic-specific transcription factors involved in the regulation of lymphocyte development. This protein forms homo- or hetero-dimers with other Ikaros family members, and is thought to function predominantly in early hematopoietic development. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene, but the biological validity of some variants has not been determined.
