Human

Antibody Type

Monoclonal

Host Species

Rat

Immunogen

Recombinant Human CCL3

Formulation

0.2 µm filtered in phosphate-buffered solution, pH 7.2, containing no preservative.

Endotoxin Level

Less than 0.01 EU/µg of the protein (< 0.001 ng/µg of the protein) as determined by the LAL test.

Preparation

The Ultra-LEAF™ (Low Endotoxin, Azide-Free) antibody was purified by affinity chromatography.

Concentration

The antibody is bottled at the concentration indicated on the vial, typically between 2 mg/mL and 3 mg/mL. Older lots may have also been bottled at 1 mg/mL. To obtain lot-specific concentration and expiration, please enter the lot number in our Certificate of Analysis online tool.

Antigen Details

Structure

CC chemokine.

Distribution

T lymphocytes, B lymphocytes, monocytes, macrophage, dendritic cells, NK cells, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, platelets, fibroblasts, osteoblasts, astrocytes, vascular smooth muscle cells, fetal microglia, and epithelial cells.

Function

The CCL3 chemokine is a chemoattractant which recruits and activates leukocytes to sites of infection or inflammation, resulting in an enhanced local inflammatory response.

Interaction

T lymphocytes, monocytes, NK cells, immature dendritic cells, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, platelets, and coronary epithelial cells.

Ligand/Receptor

CCR1, CCR4, and CCR5.

Cell Type

Hematopoietic stem and progenitors

Biology Area

Cell Biology, Immunology, Innate Immunity, Neuroinflammation, Neuroscience, Stem Cells

Molecular Family

Cytokines/Chemokines

Related FAQs

Do you guarantee that your antibodies are totally pathogen free?

BioLegend does not test for pathogens in-house aside from the GoInVivo™ product line. However, upon request, this can be tested on a custom basis with an outside, independent laboratory.

Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody by functional assay?

No, BioLegend does not test Ultra-LEAF™ antibodies by functional assays unless otherwise indicated. Due to the possible complexities and variations of uses of biofunctional antibodies in different assays and because of the large product portfolio, BioLegend does not currently perform functional assays as a routine QC for the antibodies. However, we do provide references in which the antibodies were used for functional assays and we do perform QC to verify the specificity and quality of the antibody based on our strict specification criteria.

Does BioLegend test each Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for potential pathogens?

No, BioLegend does not test for pathogens in-house unless otherwise indicated.  However, we can recommend an outside vendor to perform this testing as needed.

Have you tested this Ultra-LEAF™ antibody for in vivo or in vitro applications?

We don't test our antibodies for in vivo or in vitro applications unless otherwise indicated. Depending on the product, the TDS may describe literature supporting usage of a particular product for bioassay. It may be best to further consult the literature to find clone specific information.
