Description

CD3 is a complex composed of δ, γ, ε, and ζ chains. They are 20-25 kD members of the immunoglobulin superfamily and associated with the T cell receptor (TCR). CD3 is expressed on thymocytes, peripheral T cells, some NK-T cells, and dendritic epidermal T cells. CD3 is involved in antigen recognition, signal transduction, and T cell activation.

Application

FC - Quality tested
IHC-F - Reported in the literature, not verified in house
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 ≤ 0.25 µg per million cells in 100 µL volume. It is recommended that the reagent be titrated for optimal performance for each application.

Application Notes

Immobilized 1F4 antibody can induce T cell proliferation in vitro. Additional reported applications (for relevant formats of this clone) include: immunohistochemistry of acetone-fixed frozen sections1 and formaldehyde- fixed paraffin embedded sections4,5 immunofluorescence microscopy3, in vivo activation of T cell responses1, and in vivo inhibition of T cell responses2.
