Advantages of Pro5® MHC Class I Pentamers | ||
Pro5® MHC Pentamers |
MHC Tetramers | |
Avidity & configuration |
5 MHC-peptide complexes per Pentamer in the same orientation result in enhanced avidity interaction with T cell receptor (TCR) | MHC-peptide complex held in a tetrahedral configuration typically allowing only 3 MHC-peptide complexes to bind to TCRs |
Brightness | Unique labeling technology allows up to 5 fluorescent labels to attach to each Pentamer, yielding brighter signal | By nature, tetramers will have one fluorescent label located at the center of the complex |
Labeling flexibility | Biotin-labeled Pentamers and unlabeled Pentamers, which can be labeled with the fluorochrome of choice, maximize the range of possible applications | Tetramers, made by multimerizing biotinylated MHC monomers with fluorescent labeled streptavidin, must be supplied pre-labeled |
Stability | Unlabeled Pentamers can be stored long-term at -80°C and then used when required | Tetramers incorporating a fluorochrome must be stored at 4°C, reducing their shelf life |
