uniprot entry name :
CD8A_MOUSE
specificity :
Rat anti Mouse CD8, clone YTS105.18 recognizes a non polymorphic epitope on the mouse CD8 alpha chain. This antibody has been reported to block MHC I dependent T cell responses in vitro and in vivo and induces transplantation tolerance in combination with CD4 antibodies.
form :
Purified IgG - liquid
concentration :
IgG concentration 1 mg/ml
storage stability :
Store at 4°C or at -20°C if preferred. This product should be stored undiluted. Storage in frost free freezers is not recommended. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the antibody. Should this product contain a precipitate we recommend microcentrifugation before use. Shelf Life: 18 months from date of despatch.
tested application :
Immunohistology-Frozen, Flow cytometry (FC/FACS), Immunofluorescence (IF)
app notes :
Flow Cytometry: Use 10ul of the suggested working dilution to label 10^6 cells in 100ul. Suggested Dilution 1/50-1/100

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
