Short Description

This chimeric rabbit antibody was made using the variable domain sequences of the original Mouse IgG2b format for improved compatibility with existing reagents assays and techniques.

Application Notes

This antibody was used to stain cryostat sections (12 µm) of spleens from C57BL/6 WT and B6.XCR1-lacZ mice. It was found that this antibody could stain 20% of splenic conventional dendritic cells in C57BL/6 WT mice but did not give a signal in homozygous B6.XCR1-lacZ animals, which lack the XCR1 receptor. This antibody was also used to subsets of dendritic cells that express XCR1 using flow cytometry (Bachem et al., 2012; PMID: 22826713). Digoxigenin (Dig) coupled MARX10 was injected into C57BL/6 mice for in vivo labeling of XCR1+ dendritic cells. Recombinant ovalbumin (OVA) coupled MARX10 (MARX10-OVA) was used to measure antibody levels in C57BL/6 and homozygous B6.XCR1-lacZ mice serum following injection and for an in vivo cytotoxicity assay; MARX10-OVA was found to be highly effective in inducing CD8+ T cell cytotoxicity in vivo (Hartung et al., 2015; PMID: 25520399). This antibody has been added to the Antibody Registry (RRID: AB_3668949).
