Description: This monoclonal antibody 9A11-CD33 reacts with mouse CD33, also known as Siglec3 and gp67. CD33 belongs to the sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin lectins (Siglec) family that binds to sialic acid-containing glycans on cell surface glycoproteins and glycolipids on mammalian cells. Mouse CD33 binds to short O-linked glycans of certain mucins and sialyl-Tn epitopes. Mouse CD33 is expressed by mature granulocytes, immature myeloid cells, and microglia. Unlike human CD33, mouse CD33 lacks a cytoplasmic ITIM domain and exists as two splice variants that have different cytoplasmic tails. In microglia, CD33 inhibits the phagocytosis of toxic amyloid beta.

Clone 9A11 has been used to characterize mouse CD33 surface expression and function. View Article.

Applications Reported: This 9A11-CD33 antibody has been reported for use in flow cytometric analysis.

Applications Tested: This 9A11-CD33 antibody has been tested by flow cytometric analysis of mouse splenocytes. This may be used at less than or equal to 0.25 µg per test. A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest.

Super Bright 436 can be excited with the violet laser line (405 nm) and emits at 436 nm. We recommend using a 450/50 bandpass filter, or equivalent. Please make sure that your instrument is capable of detecting this fluorochrome.

When using two or more Super Bright dye-conjugated antibodies in a staining panel, it is recommended to use Super Bright Complete Staining Buffer (Product # SB-4401) to minimize any non-specific polymer interactions. Please refer to the datasheet for Super Bright Staining Buffer for more information.

Excitation: 405 nm; Emission: 436 nm; Laser: Violet Laser
