Due to inherent biochemical properties of antibodies, certain products may be prone to precipitation over time. Precipitation may be removed by aseptic centrifugation and/or filtration. Product Preparation Functional grade preclinical antibodies are manufactured in an animal free facility using in vitro cell culture techniques and are purified by a multi-step process including the use of protein A or G to assure extremely low levels of endotoxins, leachable protein A or aggregates. Storage and Handling Functional grade preclinical antibodies may be stored sterile as received at 2-8°C for up to one month. For longer term storage, aseptically aliquot in working volumes without diluting and store at ≤ -70°C. Avoid Repeated Freeze Thaw Cycles.

DescriptionDescriptionSpecificity Clone 480.1 activity is directed against murine CD226 (DNAM-1; PTA-1). Background Murine (m) CD226 (DNAM-1; PTA1) is an adhesion molecule involved in intercellular adhesion, lymphocyte signalling, cytotoxicity, and lymphokine secretion mediated by cytotoxic T-lymphocyte and NK cells (Uniprot Q8K4F0)1. mCD226 is also essential for NK-mediated killing of immature dendritic cells2 and acts as an important costimulatory molecule in Th1 cell activation and effector function3.
CD226 binds to PVR (CD155) via its N-terminal Ig-like domain2 and with cell surface receptor NECTIN2 (CD112)1. Based on its similarity to human CD226 (Uniprot Q15762), mCD226 likely competes with PVRIG for NECTIN2 binding. mCD226 is specifically expressed on the surface of differentiated Th1 cells but not Th2 or Th0 cells3. mCD226 expression is enhanced by Th1 differentiation but down-regulated upon Th2 polarization. In vivo treatment with anti-CD226 (clone 10E5) inhibits T cell activation and delays the onset and reduces the severity of Th1-mediated autoimmune disease. Additionally, mCD226 is constitutively expressed on CD8+ T cells, subsets of naïve CD11b+ macrophages and NK cells, and is up-regulated on activated CD4+ cells2,3. mCD226 is a marker for mature T cells2. Antigen Distribution mCD226 is expressed on the surface of differentiated Th1 cells, CD8+ T cells, subsets of naïve CD11b+ macrophages and NK cells, and activated CD4+ cells.

Clone 480.1 is an anti-mouse CD226 (DNAM-1) monoclonal antibody commonly used in in vivo mouse studies to functionally block or deplete CD226-expressing cells, particularly in the context of cancer research. CD226 (also known as DNAM-1) is an important costimulatory molecule expressed on T cells and NK cells that plays a key role in immune activation and anti-tumor responses. The 480.1 clone is a rat IgG2a k antibody that specifically binds to mouse DNAM-1 and is suitable for in vivo applications due to its ultra-low endotoxin formulation. How clone 480.1 is used in vivo mouse studies:
Key considerations:
No relevant information was found linking clone 480.1 to other non-immunological uses or to the CLoNe lineage tracing system, which is a distinct genetic labelling tool used for tracking cell clones. The usage described here is specific to immunological modulation and not lineage tracing. The correct storage temperature for a sterile packaged clone 480.1 is not specified in the provided search results, which focus on general biological materials and sterile devices. However, standard practice for sterile packaged biological cell clones is to store them at 2–8°C (refrigerator temperature) if they are shipped or labeled as "ready-to-use" and viable for short-term use, or at -80°C or lower (ultra-low temperature freezer) if meant for long-term storage or for maintaining viability over extended periods.
If you have access to the actual product label, always use that as your primary source. If not, storing at 2–8°C is the safest general guideline for most sterile packaged biological clones intended for short-term use, and -80°C or lower for long-term viability. If this is a plant clone, as sometimes referenced in horticultural contexts, some growers keep plant clones at 2–4°C (35–39°F) for a few weeks, but those require specific humidity and not full sterility. The search results lack a direct reference to "clone 480.1", so inference is based on standard laboratory protocols for sterile packaged biologicals. Always verify with your supplier or the official documentation for clone 480.1, if available. In the scientific literature, antibody 480.1 (commonly used to detect mouse CD226) is frequently used in combination with antibodies recognizing cell surface markers or proteins relevant to NK and T cell biology, immune activation, and tumor recognition. The most common combinations include antibodies targeting proteins such as CD3, CD4, CD8, CD155, CD112, NK1.1, and CD49b. Key proteins and antibodies used with 480.1 in published studies:
These antibodies are commonly used as part of multiparameter flow cytometry panels to characterize immune cell subsets, analyze cytotoxicity, or dissect receptor-ligand interactions. Additional commonly used reagents and approaches:
The selection of antibodies depends on the experimental designwhether identifying cell types, examining receptor expression, or investigating ligand-receptor interactions in cytotoxicity assays. For advanced applications, combinations may include additional functional proteins such as therapeutic peptides, Fc-fusion proteins, or fluorescent payloads for in vivo imaging. In summary, 480.1 is most often paired with markers for lymphocyte identification, ligands for CD226, and functional or imaging agents when broader phenotyping or mechanistic studies are undertaken. The key scientific findings from citations of clone 480.1 focus on its central role in immunological studies, particularly in the functional analysis of DNAM-1 (CD226) in cytotoxic lymphocyte biology. Key findings include:
In summary: Citations of clone 480.1 provide strong evidence for its critical role as a functional reagent that helped establish DNAM-1 as a key co-stimulatory molecule for cytotoxic lymphocytes, essential for efficient immune responses and now a frequent target in both basic research and translational immunology.
