    Product Information

    Product Description

    This Cell Signaling Technology® antibody is conjugated to Alexa Fluor® 488 fluorescent dye under optimal conditions. This antibody conjugate is expected to exhibit the same reactivity as the unconjugated Whitlow/218 Linker (1B4A1) Mouse mAb #28307, which is expected to react with cell surface expressed CARs of varying specificity containing a Whitlow/218 linker within the scFv of the extracellular domain.

    Fluorescent Properties

    • ← Excitation: 495 nm ← Emission: 519 nm

    Product Usage Information

    Application Dilution
    Flow Cytometry (Fixed/Permeabilized) 1:50
    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

    Whitlow/218 Linker (1B4A1) Mouse mAb (Alexa Fluor® 488 Conjugate) recognizes exogenously expressed levels of scFv-based CARs containing a Whitlow/218 linker.

    Species Reactivity:

    All Species Expected

    Source / Purification

    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues of the Whitlow/218 linker peptide.

    Background

    The Whitlow/218 peptide is a commonly used linker that connects the variable heavy (VH) domain and variable light (VL) domain of single-chain variable fragments (scFvs) and chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) that utilize an extracellular domain scFv for target antigen recognition. The Whitlow/218 linker affords the scFv with enhanced resistance to proteolysis and aggregation (1).
