Ly6K transfected-HEK-293 cells were stained with clone MK34 (filled histogram) or purified rat IgG2a, κ isotype control (open histogram), followed by anti-rat IgG PE. -
Mouse testicular tissue was formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded, prior to sectioning. After deparaffinization and antigen retrieval with sodium citrate pH 6, the sample was stained overnight with anti-Ly6k (clone MK34) at 10 µg/ml followed by detection using BioLegend’s Ultra Streptavidin (USA) HRP Detection Kit (Multi-Species, AEC).
Lymphocyte antigen 6K (Ly6K) is a 17 kD GPI-anchored membrane protein expressed by testicular germ cells. Ly6K associates with TEX101 and may have a role in spermatogenesis. It is also expressed in some cancer cell types; a recent study also demonstrated its expression in plasma cells. A soluble 12 kD form of Ly6K has been reported.

-
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 ≤1.0 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume. For immunohistochemical staining on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue sections, a concentration range of 1.0 - 10 µg/ml is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.
- Application Notes
-
Additional reported applications (for the relevant formats) include: immunohistochemical staining on frozen tissue sections1, western blotting1, and immunoprecipitation1.
