Product Specifications

Immunogen

NS0 mouse myeloma cell line transfected with human CXCR7/RDC‑1
Met1-Lys362 (Gly131Ser)
Accession # AAA62370

Specificity

Detects human CXCR7/RDC‑1 in direct ELISAs. In flow cytometry, reacts specifically with five distinct human CXCR7 transfectants, but does not react with their respective parental lines or mouse CXCR7 transfectants. In flow cytometry, also reacts with monocytes expressing CXCR7, but does not react with MCF-7 cells which have been reported to have surface-expressing CXCR7 using clone 11G8. Due to the conflicting reports published, use of monoclonal MAB4227 may result in an underestimation of CXCR7 expression on certain cell types.

Applications for CXCR7/RDC-1 Antibody (358426) [PE/Cy5.5]

Application
Recommended Usage

Flow Cytometry

Optimal dilutions of this antibody should be experimentally determined.
Application Notes
Optimal dilution of this antibody should be experimentally determined. For optimal results using our Tandem dyes, please avoid prolonged exposure to light or extreme temperature fluctuations. These can lead to irreversible degradation or decoupling. When staining intracellular targets, specific attention to the fixation and permeabilization steps in your flow protocol may be required.

Background: CXCR7/RDC-1

CXCR7/RDC-1 is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) member of the CXC subfamily of chemokine receptors. Human CXCR7/RDC-1 is 362 amino acids (aa) in length with a predicted molecular weight of 41 kDa. Mouse and rat CXCR7/RDC-1 share 93% aa sequence identity with the human protein. CXCR7/RDC-1 binds to and acts as a scavenger for CXCL11/I-TAC and CXCL12/SDF-1. CXCR7/RDC-1 can also function as a co-receptor for HIV and SIV. Unlike other chemokine receptors, CXCR7/RDC-1 does not activate G protein signaling, but instead initiates beta-Arrestin-mediated receptor-ligand internalization. Although CXCR7/RDC-1 itself does not activate G protein signaling, the receptor can heterodimerize with CXCR4 to activate G proteins in response to CXCL12/SDF-1 binding. Studies on CXCR7/RDC-1 knockout mice suggest that it is critical for cardiovascular development. While CXCR7/RDC-1 does not appear to signal in normal hematopoietic cells, it is highly expressed in leukemic cells where it activates Akt signaling that promotes cell trafficking and adhesion. CXCR7/RDC-1 also mediates neuronal migration, displays aberrant signaling in astrocytes, and is highly expressed in glioma cells.
