The rat monoclonal antibody BM16 recognizes an extracellular epitope of CD294 / CRTH2 (prostaglandin D2 receptor 2), a G-protein-coupled seven-transmembrane protein expressed on Th2 cells, peripheral blood basophils and eosinophils.
纯化方法
Purified antibody is conjugated with activated allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 10 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 106 cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.
Prostaglandin D2 receptor 2,CD294 (prostaglandin D2 receptor 2) is a G-protein-coupled receptor that is preferentially expressed in CD4+ effector T helper 2 (Th2) cells, but also on eosinophils and basophils. It mediates the pro-inflammatory chemotaxis of eosinophils, basophils, and Th2 lymphocytes generated during allergic inflammation. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the 3' UTR of CD294 gene have been associated with asthma susceptibility. Outside the immune system CD294 is expressed e.g. in gut, heart, and brain. The intracellular C terminal tail contains sites for phosphorylation by protein kinase C.,DP2, PTGDR2, DL1R, CRTH2, GPR44
