General description

Lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus G (Ly6G) is a 25kDa glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)–anchored protein. It is encoded by the gene mapped to mouse chromosome 15. The encoded protein belongs to the Ly6/urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (uPAR) family. Ly6G is characterized with a “3 finger fold” motif stabilized by 4-5 disulfide bonds. Ly6G is expressed only in mice.
The rat monoclonal antibody RB6-8C5 detects Ly6G component of Gr-1 antigen, a commonly used surface marker of neutrophils.

Immunogen

Murine granulocytes

Application

The reagent is designed for Flow Cytometry analysis. Suggested working dilution is 1 μg/mL of sample. Indicated dilution is recommended starting point for use of this product. Working concentrations should be determined by the investigator.

Biochem/physiol Actions

The protein folds of lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus G (Ly6G) help to form a docking site for other molecules. Ly6G functions as a marker for neutrophils. The encoded protein might be implicated in the modulation of leukocyte migration.

Diabetic keratopathy, a sight-threatening corneal disease, comprises several symptomatic conditions including delayed epithelial wound healing, recurrent erosions, and sensory nerve (SN) neuropathy. We investigated the role of neuropeptides in mediating corneal wound healing, including epithelial wound closure and SN regeneration.
