Product Information
NOTE: Prepare solutions with reverse osmosis deionized (RODI) or equivalent grade water.
NOTE: When including fluorescent cellular dyes in your experiment (including viability dyes, DNA dyes, etc.), please refer to the dye product page for the recommended protocol. Visit www.cellsignal.com for a full listing of cellular dyes validated for use in flow cytometry.
NOTE: Count cells using a hemocytometer or alternative method.
NOTE: If using whole blood, lyse red blood cells and wash by centrifugation prior to Immunostaining.
NOTE: Optimal centrifugation conditions will vary depending upon cell type and reagent volume. Generally, 150-300g for 1-5 minutes will be sufficient to pellet the cells.
Protocol Id: 2589
Human
Protein L was first isolated from the surface of bacterial species Peptostreptococcus magnus (1). Unlike Protein A and Protein G which differentially bind to the Fc region of immunoglobulin isotype heavy chains, Protein L contains Ig binding domains that interact with the κ light chain variable domain without disrupting paratope function (2-4). This attribute not only facilitates binding to a broader range of immunoglobulin classes and subclasses than either Protein A or Protein G but also allows for binding to Fab fragments and single chain variable fragments (scFvs) that contain κ light chain sequences. Protein L does, however, display specificity with respect to κ light chain subtypes. In humans, Protein L binds to VκI, VκIII, and VκIV subtypes, whereas binding is restricted to VκI in mice (4).
