products description :
Description: Mouse IgG monoclonal antibody for CD8, CD8a molecule, CD8b molecule (CD8A, CD8B) detection. Tested with IHC-F in Human. No cross reactivity with other proteins. Uniprot ID: P01732. Background: The human lymphocyte differentiation antigen CD8 is encoded by a single gene that gives rise to a 33- to 34-kDa glycoprotein expressed on the cell surface as a dimer and in higher molecular mass forms.

uniprot summary :
CD8A: Identifies cytotoxic/suppressor T-cells that interact with MHC class I bearing targets. CD8 is thought to play a role in the process of T-cell mediated killing. CD8 alpha chains binds to class I MHC molecules alpha-3 domains. In general heterodimer of an alpha and a beta chain linked by two disulfide bonds. Can also form homodimers. Shown to be expressed as heterodimer on thymocytes and as homodimer on peripheral blood T-lymphocytes. Interacts with the MHC class I HLA-A/B2M dimer. Interacts with LCK in a zinc-dependent manner. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral. Cellular Component: cell surface; membrane; integral to membrane; external side of plasma membrane. Molecular Function: protein binding; protein homodimerization activity; protein kinase binding. Biological Process: cell surface receptor linked signal transduction; T cell activation; immune system process; T cell mediated immunity; positive regulation of calcium-mediated signaling; cytotoxic T cell differentiation; defense response to virus
