    Product Information

    Product Description

    This Cell Signaling Technology® antibody is conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorescent dye under optimal conditions and tested in-house for direct flow cytometric analysis in human cells. This antibody conjugate is expected to exhibit the same species cross-reactivity as the unconjugated BST2 (E4N3W) XP® Rabbit mAb #95940.

    Product Usage Information

    Application Dilution
    Flow Cytometry (Live) 1:50

    Storage

    Supplied in PBS (pH 7.2), less than 0.1% sodium azide, and 2 mg/mL BSA. Store at 4°C. Do not aliquot the antibody. Protect from light. Do not freeze.

    Protocol

    Specificity / Sensitivity

    BST2 (E4N3W) XP® Rabbit mAb (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) recognizes endogenous levels of total BST2 protein. This clone shows a preference for the BST2 dimer by western blot.

    Species Reactivity:

    Human

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with human BST2 recombinant protein.

    Background

    BST2 (CD317, Tetherin, HM1.24) is a type II transmembrane glycoprotein functioning as a major mediator of the innate immune defense against the dissemination of enveloped viruses by tethering virion on the cell surface (1). BST2 has an N-terminal cytoplasmic tail for endocytosis and cytoskeletal signaling, a transmembrane domain, an extracellular domain containing putative disulfide bonds and coiled-coil region for homodimer formation, and a C-terminal GPI domain for membrane anchoring (2,3). Both the transmembrane domain and the GPI domain can insert either into the cell membrane or the viral envelope membrane and hold them together to prevent viral release. Some viruses encode proteins, such as HIV-1 and Vpu, respectively, to act as antagonists to counteract BST2 (2,3). BST2 is overexpressed in gastrointestinal cancers, breast cancer, lung cancer, and multiple myeloma (4-7). BST2 monoclonal antibody targeting myeloma or lung cancer cells induces cellular cytotoxicity and cell death (ADCC, antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity). Thus, BST2 serves as a potential target for tumor immunotherapy.
