The DX2 monoclonal antibody specifically binds to the human Fas antigen (also called APO-1). This 45 kDa transmembrane cell surface molecule was designated as CD95 at the Fifth HLDA Workshop. Fas is a member of the TNF-receptor superfamily and is also known as Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 6 (TNFRSF6). It is expressed on a variety of normal and neoplastic cells including activated T and B lymphocytes and some undifferentiated thymocytes. The Fas/CD95 antigen is a polypeptide that plays a role in the programmed sequence of events leading to cell death, termed apoptosis. The DX2 clone specifically reacts with murine L cells, murine L1210 leukemia cells and murine P815 mastocytoma cells transfected with human Fas cDNA but not with untransfected parental cell lines. Crosslinking CD95 with DX2 antibody delivers an apoptotic signal indicating that DX2 recognizes a functional epitope of the CD95 antigen. The antibody is conjugated to BD Horizon™ V450, which has been developed for use in multicolor flow cytometry experiments and is available exclusively from BD Biosciences. It is excited by the Violet laser Ex max of 406nm and has an Em Max at 450 nm. Conjugates with BD Horizon™ V450 can be used in place of Pacific Blue™ conjugates.
