Dieser Anti-CD8 alpha Antikörper ist ein Maus Monoklonal Antikörper zur Detektion von CD8 alpha in FACS, WB, IP, IHC (fro), IHC (p) und Func. Geeignet für Ratte.
The mouse monoclonal antibody OX-8 recognizes the hinge-like membrane-proximal extracellular domain of rat CD8a (32-34 kDa, alpha chain of the CD8 antigen).
Aufreinigung
Purified by protein-A affinity chromatography.
Endotoxin-Niveau
Endotoxin level is less than 0.01 EU/µg of the protein, as determined by the LAL test.
CD8a molecule,The CD8a (CD8 alpha) subunit of CD8 T cell coreceptor is expressed in CD8 alpha/beta heterodimers on majority of MHC I-restricted conventional T cells and thymocytes and in CD8 alpha/alpha homodimers on subsets of memory T cells, intraepithelial lymphocytes, NK cells, macrophages and dendritic cells. Regulation of CD8 beta level on T cell surface seems to be an important mechanism to control their effector function. Assembly of CD8 alpha/beta but not alpha/alpha dimers is connected with formation or localization to the lipid rafts. Recruiting triggered TCR complexes to these membrane microdomains as well as affinity of TCR to MHC I is modulated by CD8, thereby affecting the functional diversity of the TCR signaling.,Ly-2, Ly-B, Ly-35, Lyt-2
