Preparation And Storage
Product Notices
- This reagent has been pre-diluted for use at the recommended Volume per Test. We typically use 1 × 10^6 cells in a 100-µl experimental sample (a test).
- An isotype control should be used at the same concentration as the antibody of interest.
- Source of all serum proteins is from USDA inspected abattoirs located in the United States.
- Caution: Sodium azide yields highly toxic hydrazoic acid under acidic conditions. Dilute azide compounds in running water before discarding to avoid accumulation of potentially explosive deposits in plumbing.

The Q21-559 monoclonal antibody recognizes ROR gamma t (RORγt), an isoform of ROR gamma (RORγ). RORγt is a DNA-binding transcription factor that is encoded by the RORC (RAR-related orphan receptor C) gene. It belongs to the ROR/RZR orphan nuclear receptor family. Two protein isoforms are produced from the RORC gene by alternative splicing: RORγ or RORγt. The RORγ isoform is expressed in many tissues, including thymus, lung, liver, kidney, muscle, and brown fat. However the tissue distribution of the second isoform RORγt is highly restricted to the thymus where it is expressed exclusively in immature CD4+CD8+ thymocytes and in peripheral Th17 and LTi cells. RORγt reportedly functions as an essential transcription factor for the development of secondary lymphoid tissues. It also plays an important regulatory role in thymopoiesis and effector T cell differentiation, especially for Th17 cells.
