CD5 antibody

Catalog No. ABIN951349

Product Details anti-CD5 Antibody

Target: CD5

Reactivity: Mouse

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD5 antibody is un-conjugated

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS), Cytotoxicity Test (CyTox)

Specificity: Anti-Ly 1.1 monoclonal antibody reacts with T lymphocytes from mouse strains expressing the Ly 1.1 phenotype, but does not react with lymphocytes from mouse strains expressing the Ly 1.2 phenotype. This antibody can be used to identify T helper cells as they have a high density of Ly 1 on their surface.

Purification: Protein G Chromatography

Immunogen: Recipient: 129/ReJ. Donor: B6-Ly-1a. Fusion Partner: Spleen from immunized recipient fused with myeloma P3-NSI-Ag4-1.

Clone: 7-20-6-3

Isotype: IgG2a

Application Details

Application Notes: Optimal working dilution should be determined by the investigator.

Restrictions: For Research Use only

Handling

Concentration: 1.0 mg/mL

Buffer: PBS without preservatives

Target Details for CD5

Target: CD5

Alternative Name: CD5 (CD5 Products)

Background: CD5 is a 55 kDa T lymphocyte single chain transmembrane glycoprotein. It is present on all mature T lymphocytes, on most thymocytes and on many T cell leukemias and lymphomas. It reacts with a subpopulation of activated B cells. CD5/Lyt1 antigen is a monomeric type I transmembrane glycoprotein expressed on thymocytes, T lymphocytes, and a subset of B lymphocytes, but not on natural killer (NK) cells. It has been identified as the major ligand of the B cell antigen CD72. The frequency of CD5+ B cells exhibits strain dependent variation, and the phenotypic, anatomical, functional, developmental, and pathological characteristics of the CD5+ B cells suggest that they may represent a distinct lineage, known as B1 cells. Binding of CD5 on the T cell surface can augment alloantigen or mitogen induced lymphocyte proliferation and induces increased cytosolic free calcium, IL2 secretion, and IL2R expression. It has been proposed that CD5 negatively regulates signal transduction mediated by the T cell and B cell receptors.Synonyms: CD5, LEU1, Lymphocyte antigen T1/Leu-1, T-cell surface glycoprotein CD5
