LAG3 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN120324

Product Details anti-LAG3 Antibody

Target: LAG3 (Lymphocyte-Activation Gene 3 (LAG3))

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Rat

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This LAG3 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: This antibody recognises lymphocyte activation gene-3 (LAG-3), that is also referred to as CD223. Clone C9B7W recognises an epitope within the D2 domain of CD223. The antibody is reported to block the in vitro function of murine LAG-3 but studies suggest that the antibody does not block binding of LAG-3 to MHC class II. We recommend the use of SM2268LE for this purpose.

Purification: Affinity chromatography on Protein G

Immunogen: Murine CD223 Ig fusion protein. Cells from immunised Lewis rats were fused with cells of the Sp/20 myeloma cell line.

Clone: C9B7W

Isotype: IgG1

Target Details for LAG3

Target: LAG3 (Lymphocyte-Activation Gene 3 (LAG3))

Alternative Name: CD223 / LAG3 (LAG3 Products)

Synonyms: CD223 antibody, LAG-3 antibody, Ly66 antibody, lymphocyte activating 3 antibody, lymphocyte-activation gene 3 antibody, LAG3 antibody, Lag3 antibody

Background: CD223 is a 70kD activation-induced cell surface molecule. Murine CD223 is expressed on activated CD4 positive and CD8 positive alpha/beta T lymphocytes and a subset of natural killer (NK) cells. CD223 binds to MHC class II molecules with high affinity and is reported to negatively regulate T cell homeostasis and T cell expansion.Synonyms: FDC, LAG-3, Lymphocyte activation gene 3 protein
