Protein L was initially isolated from bacteria Peptostreptococcus magnus cell wall, and now is prepared as recombinant protein. Protein L has been found to have a high affinity for Ig κ light chains. This unique ability of protein L to bind to the κ light chains of antibodies makes it valuable in detection and purification of antibodies and antibody fragments that contain kappa light chains but not the Fc region, such as antigen-binding VL domains and Fv fragments prepared from monoclonal antibodies. It is also used to detect chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) expressing cells.

- Recommended Usage
-
Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is 5 µL per million cells in 100 µL staining volume or 5 µL per 100 µL of whole blood. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
- Excitation Laser
-
Blue Laser (488 nm)
Green Laser (532 nm)/Yellow-Green Laser (561 nm)
- Application Notes
-
For multi-color flow cytometry analysis, cells should be stained with Protein L first, and washed; costaining reagent(s) need to be applied as the second step.
