Description
The DX2 monoclonal antibody reacts with human CD95 (Fas, Apo-1), a 40-50 kDa member of the TNFR superfamily. DX2 does not block binding of EOS9.1, another antibody specific for human CD95. The DX2 monoclonal is reported to recognize dog/canine CD95.
This product contains 1 vial of NovaFluor conjugate and 1 vial of CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer.
Applications Tested
This DX2 antibody has been pre-titrated and tested by flow cytometric analysis of normal human peripheral blood cells. This can be used at (5 µL (0.6 µg)/test). A test is defined as the amount (µg) of antibody that will stain a cell sample in a final volume of 100 µL. Cell number should be determined empirically but can range from 10^5 to 10^8 cells/test.
Master mixes
• Master mixes of NFs should be made at 2-8 °C and may be made up to 4 hours ahead of time.
• We do not recommend storing master mixes containing NovaFluor conjugates overnight or longer.
Whole Blood compatibility
• When utilizing whole blood (as opposed to density-gradient-purified PBMC), we recommend lysing red blood cells in bulk prior to staining with NovaFluor conjugates.
• See the Bulk Lysis of Human Whole Blood protocol here.
• Staining of whole blood with NovaFluor conjugates followed by lysis of red blood cells may result in higher-than-expected background staining.
Viability dye compatibility
• NovaFluor dyes are not compatible with DNA intercalating viability dyes.
• Do not use viability dyes such as propidium iodide, 7-actinomycin D (7-AAD) and DAPI. Invitrogen LIVE/DEAD Fixable Dead Cell stains are recommended for use with NovaFluor dyes.
CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer
• This NovaFluor conjugate comes with CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer (Cat. No. C001T03F01), essential for optimal staining.
• Use CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer in all experiments with NovaFluor conjugates.
• Add 5 μL per sample to antibody cocktails/master mixes (regardless of how many Novafluor-conjugated antibodies are present) before combining with cells.
• CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer is compatible with either Super Bright Complete Blocking Buffer or Brilliant Stain Buffer and can be used in antibody cocktails/master mixes with those reagents.
• For single-color controls, use 5 μL of CellBlox Plus Blocking Buffer per 100 μL of cell sample (10^3 to 10^8 cells).
NovaFluor conjugates are based on Phiton technology utilizing novel fluorophore-containing nucleic acid dye structures that allow for engineered fluorescent signatures with consideration for spillover and spread impacts. Learn more
Our internal testing shows that NovaFluor Yellow 610 non-specifically stains B cells in SJL mice. Non-specific staining has not been observed in BALB/c or C57BL/6 mice. Other strains have not been tested. See the Antibody Testing Data for an example of this strain-dependent difference.

CD95, also known as Fas or APO-1, is a 46 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein that functions as a cell death receptor in the tumor necrosis factor receptor (TNFR) superfamily. It is expressed by a wide range of hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells, including monocytes, neutrophils, lymphocytes, and fibroblasts. CD95 also exists in a soluble form weighing approximately 26 kDa. The interaction of CD95 with its ligand, FasL, induces apoptosis, playing a crucial role in peripheral tolerance and anti-viral immune responses. Upon stimulation, CD95 leads to the aggregation of its intracellular Fas-associated death domains (FADD), formation of the death-inducing signaling complex (DISC), and activation of caspases. This cascade results in apoptosis. CD95 is also involved in activating NF-kappaB, MAPK3/ERK1, and MAPK8/JNK, and transduces proliferative signals in normal diploid fibroblasts and T cells. There are at least eight alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding seven distinct isoforms of CD95. Isoforms lacking the transmembrane domain may negatively regulate apoptosis mediated by the full-length isoform. The Fas/Fas ligand system is implicated in several human diseases, including AIDS, hepatitis, and cancer, highlighting its importance in immune regulation and disease pathology.
