Anti-IL-13 Ra1 (PerCP)

Two type I membrane proteins belonging to the hemopoietin receptor family have been cloned and shown to bind IL-13 with differing affinities. The lower affinity IL-13 binding protein is now referred to as IL-13 Ra1 and is also known as CD213a. IL-13 Ra1 combines with IL-4 Ra to form a high affinity receptor complex capable of transducing an IL-13-dependent proliferative signal. The high affinity IL-13 binding protein is now referred to as IL-13 Ra2, which acts as a decoy receptor. Applications: Suitable for use in Flow Cytometry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Flow Cytometry: 10ul labels 1x10e6 cells, Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Hybridoma: Myeloma cells with B cells from Balb/c mice. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C before opening. DO NOT FREEZE! Stable at 4°C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. Stable for 12 months after receipt at 4°C. Freezing PerCP conjugates will result in a substantial loss of activity. PerCP conjugates are sensitive to light.
