Description
Specificity:
Mouse Anti-Human CD57 (Clone VC1.1) recognizes Human CD57. This monoclonal antibody was purified using multi-step affinity chromatography methods such as Protein A or G depending on the species and isotype. Anti-CD57 recognizes a (Mr 110 kD) carbohydrate molecule on myeloid cells. This surface antigen is associated with myelin-associated glycoprotein (MAG).1 This antibody blocks binding of HNK-1 (Leu. 7) antibody.3

Antigen Distribution:
The CD57 antigen is present on 15-20% of normal peripheral blood mononuclear cells. It is expressed on a subset of natural killer cells (60%) and on a subset of T-lymphocytes. This carbohydrate is also present on N-CAM in the nervous system.

Background:
Anti-CD57 may be used in flow cytometry, Western blotting and immunohistology on formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections. The antibody is useful for enumeration of NK subsets and T-lymphocyte subsets, studies of neural tissue, malignant tissues and AIDS-related complex.

Known Species Cross Reactivity: Hu+
Host Species
Mouse
Formulation
This purified antibody is formulated in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (PBS) pH 7.4, 150 mM NaCl, 1% BSA and 0.09% sodium azide as a preservative.
Storage and Stability
This antibody is stable when stored at 2-8°C. Do not freeze.
Reported Applications
IHC (NBF/Par.), FC, WB
Each investigator should determine their own optimal working dilution for specific applications.
