The FITC Anti-Human/Mouse KLRG-1 Antibody (2F1) is a versatile tool designed for research involving KLRG-1, a cell surface marker associated with immune cell function. This antibody, conjugated with FITC for easy detection, is suitable for use in flow cytometry and immunofluorescence assays. It specifically targets the KLRG-1 protein in both human and mouse samples, allowing for precise identification and analysis of KLRG-1-expressing cells in various research settings.KLRG-1, also known as killer cell lectin-like receptor G1, is a key marker for identifying specific subsets of immune cells, particularly cytotoxic T cells and natural killer cells.
Its expression patterns are indicative of cell differentiation and functional status, making it a valuable tool for studying immune responses in infection, inflammation, and cancer. By utilizing the FITC Anti-Human/Mouse KLRG-1 Antibody (2F1), researchers can gain insights into immune cell populations and their roles in immune surveillance and defense mechanisms.

Background:
Killer cell lectin-like receptor G1 (KLRG1) is the mouse homolog of the rat mast cell function-associated antigen (MAFA or 2F1-Ag). KLRG1 is a type II membrane glycoprotein that was first identified on the surface of rat mast cell line RBL-2H3. It is composed of a homodimer of glycosylated 30-38 kD subunits. Mouse and human homologs of KLRG1 are expressed by subsets of NK cells and lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells but not mast cells. KLRG1 is also expressed on subsets of CD8+ and CD4+ cells, including CD4+ and CD8+ effector/memory cells, potent regulatory CD4+ T cells. KLRG1 may be involved in regulating NK cell homeostasis. KLRG4 was found to recognize cadherins and thus inhibit immune responses by regulating the effector function and the developmental processes of NK and T cells.
