Anti-Perforin (human), Unconjugated Clone B-D48 [Mouse]

Specificity: Recognizes human Perforin, a 70 kDa protein, Format: Phosphate-buffered saline with 1% BSA and 0.1% sodium azide, Working Dilution: Use 10 µl to label 106 cells or 100 µl of whole blood, Storage: Stable at +2-8°C for 12 months. For longer storage freeze aliquots, Application Notes: Suitable for Flow Cytometry Protein function: Plays a key role in secretory granule-dependent cell death, and in defense against virus-infected or neoplastic cells. Plays an important role in killing other cells that are recognized as non-self by the immune system, e.g. in transplant rejection or some forms of autoimmune disease. Can insert into the membrane of target cells in its calcium-bound form, oligomerize and form large pores. Promotes cytolysis and apoptosis of target cells by facilitating the uptake of cytotoxic granzymes. [The UniProt Consortium]
