    Human paraffin-embedded tonsil tissue slices were prepared with a standard protocol of deparaffination and rehydration. Antigen retrieval was done with Tris buffer 1X pH 8.5 at 95°C for 40 minutes. Tissue was washed with PBS/ 0.05% Tween20 twice for five minutes, blocked with 5% FBS and 0.2% gelatin for 30 minutes. Then, the tissue was stained with 10 µg/mL of purified anti-human CD3ε (clone APA1/1) at 4°C overnight. On the next day, the tissue was washed twice with PBS and stained with goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (clone Poly4053) Alexa Fluor® 594 (red) for two hours at room temperature. The nuclei were counter staining with DAPI (blue). The image was captured with a 10X objective.

    Human paraffin-embedded spleen tissue slices were prepared with a standard protocol of deparaffination and rehydration. Antigen retrieval was done with Tris buffer 1X pH 8.5 at 95°C for 40 minutes. Tissue was washed with PBS/ 0.05% Tween20 twice for five minutes, blocked with 5% FBS and 0.2% gelatin for 30 minutes. Then, the tissue was stained with 10 µg/mL of purified anti-human CD3ε (clone APA1/1) and anti-human IgD (clone W18340A) at 4°C overnight. On the next day, the tissue was washed twice with PBS and stained with goat anti-mouse secondary antibody (clone Poly4053) Alexa Fluor® 594 (red) and anti-rat secondary antibody (clone Poly4054) Alexa Fluor® 647 (green) for two hours at room temperature. The nuclei were counter staining with DAPI (blue). The image was captured with a 10X objective.

Description

The CD3ε chain of the CD3-TCR complex is a type I membrane protein that undergoes conformational change following ligation of the TCR-CD3 complex.  This conformational change leads to exposure of the proline rich sequence in CD3ε and results in recruitment of Nck. It is expressed by all mature T cells and forms a heteromeric complex with CD3 α/β or γ/δ and ζ chains. It is important in T cell development, and deficiency of this gene has been associated with severe immunodeficiency.

Recommended Usage

Each lot of this antibody is quality control tested by immunofluorescent staining with flow cytometric analysis. For flow cytometric staining, the suggested use of this reagent is ≤ 0.5 µg per million cells in 100 µL volume. For Western blotting, the suggested use of this reagent is 1.0 - 4.0 µg per mL. For immunohistochemistry, a concentration range of 5.0 - 10.0 µg/mL is suggested. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Application Notes

Clone APA1/1 recognizes an activation-dependent intracellular epitope of the CD3ε chain. Additional reported applications (for the relevant formats of this clone) include: immunofluorescent staining of paraformaldehyde fixed sections1, in vivo tracking of T cells 2, and Western blotting3. The LEAF purified format is recommended for in vivo studies.
