Antibody DetailsProduct DetailsReactive Species Mouse Host Species Rat Recommended Isotype Controls Recommended Dilution Buffer Immunogen Transfected Cell Line for Mouse B7H2 Product Concentration ≥ 5.0 mg/ml Endotoxin Level <0.5 EU/mg as determined by the LAL method Purity ≥98% monomer by analytical SEC ⋅ >95% by SDS Page Formulation This monoclonal antibody is aseptically packaged and formulated in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline (150 mM NaCl) PBS pH 7.2 - 7.4 with no carrier protein, potassium, calcium or preservatives added. 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.

This monoclonal antibody was purified using multi-step affinity chromatography methods such as Protein A or G depending on the species and isotype. Background ICOSL, also known as CD275 and B7-H2, is a member of the B7 family of co-stimulatory molecules related to B7-1 and B7-2. It is a transmembrane glycoprotein with extracellular IgV and IgC domains. ICOSL is expressed on B cells and macrophages. It binds to ICOS on activated T cells and thus delivers a positive costimulatory signal for optimal T cell function1. ICOS and B7RP-I do not interact with proteins in the CD28-B7 pathway2. The structural features of ICOSL are crucial for its costimulatory function. ICOSL constructs lacking either the IgC or IgV domain demonstrates that receptor binding is mediated solely by the IgV domain but requires the IgC domain for maintaining the structural integrity of the protein3. Antigen Distribution splenic B-cells, T-cells, dendritic cells and macrophages Ligand/Receptor ICOS Function Binds to ICOS. Co-stimulates T cell responses including proliferation and cytokine secretion. Stimulates B cell proliferation and differentiation to plasma cells.

References to antibody suppliers and characterization can be found in Bio X Cell, Fisher Scientific, and primary literature. The correct storage temperature for the sterile packaged HK5.3 clone (Anti-Mouse ICOSL/CD275 antibody) is 2–8°C for short-term use (up to four weeks); for long-term storage, aliquot and store at –80°C.
Do not freeze at moderate temperatures (e.g., –20°C), as ultra-low temperatures (–80°C) provide the best stability for extended periods. Always consult the products Certificate of Analysis for incremental details if available. The HK5.3 antibody is a monoclonal antibody targeting mouse ICOSL (CD275, also known as B7RP-1 or B7-H2), which is an immune checkpoint protein expressed on antigen-presenting cells. In the literature, researchers frequently use HK5.3 in combination with other antibodies or proteins to study T cell co-stimulation, immune regulation, and cell profiling in various immunological contexts. Commonly used antibodies or proteins with HK5.3 include:
