This antibody recognises mouse chemokine receptor 9 (CCR9), also known as CD199. CCR9 is a seven transmembrane protein which is a member of the beta chemokines receptor family. CCR9 is expressed in thymus and small intestine, and mediates the recruitment and development of thymocytes in response to CCL25; the only known ligand of CCR9. CCR9 is an alternative co-receptor with CD4 for HIV infection, and has been implicated in adult T cell leukaemia. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described.Clone 9B1 blocks CCL25-induced Ca2+ release, attenuating inflammation in a murine model of chronic ileitis when given in early disease stages.
Applications
Flow Cytometry
Dilutions
Flow Cytometry: Neat, Use 10µl of the suggested working dilution to label 1x106 cells in 100µl. The Fc region of monoclonal antibodies may bind non-specifically to cells expressing low affinity Fc receptors. This may be reduced by using SeroBlock FcR (BUF041A/B).
Reactivity
Mouse
Immunogen
A peptide corresponding to 25 amino acids from the N-terminus of murine CCR9, conjugated to Keyhole Limpet Haemocyanin.
