Description

Description: MaxLight™490 is a new Blue-Green photostable dye conjugate comparable to DyLight™488, Alexa Fluor™488 and offers better labeling efficiency, brighter imaging and increased immunodetection. Absorbance (491nm); Emission (515nm); Extinction Coefficient 73,000. PI-9 (proteinase inhibitor 9), also known as SerpinB9, is a 42kD intracellular nucleocytoplasmic serpin expressed in cytotoxic lymphocytes (CTLs), natural killer (NK) cells, monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs), and to a lesser extent in B cells and myeloid cells. Granzyme B (grB) is a serine protease highly expressed by CTLs and NK cells, which is endocytosed by virus-infected and malignant target cells. The subsequent release of grB from the endocytic vesicles into the cytoplasm of the target cells, triggers grB-mediated apoptosis, through cleavage of various cytoplasmic or nuclear proteins. PI-9, up-regulated in response to grB production and degranulation, has been identified as a potent inhibitor of Granzyme B-mediated apoptosis, providing a vital self-protection mechanism against the premature apoptosis of CTLs and NK cells by grB, which may escape into the cytoplasm of the effector cells themselves.
