TCR alpha/beta antibody (APC)

Catalog No. ABIN1302629

Product Details anti-TCR alpha/beta Antibody (APC)

Target: TCR alpha/beta (T Cell Receptor alpha/beta (TCR alpha/beta))

Reactivity: Human

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This TCR alpha/beta antibody is conjugated to APC

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Specificity: The mouse monoclonal antibody IP26 recognizes a monomorphic extracellular determinant of TCR alpha/beta, the dominant subtype of T cell receptor expressed in human peripheral blood.

Cross-Reactivity (Details): Human

Purification: Purified antibody is conjugated with activated allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions and unconjugated antibody and free fluorochrome are removed by size-exclusion chromatography.

Clone: IP26

Isotype: IgG1

Application Details

Application Notes: Flow cytometry: The reagent is designed for analysis of human blood cells using 10 μL reagent / 100 μL of whole blood or 10⁶ cells in a suspension. The content of a vial (1 ml) is sufficient for 100 tests.

Comment:

The purified antibody is conjugated with cross-linked Allophycocyanin (APC) under optimum conditions. The conjugate is purified by size-exclusion chromatography and adjusted for direct use. No reconstitution is necessary.

Target Details for TCR alpha/beta

Target: TCR alpha/beta (T Cell Receptor alpha/beta (TCR alpha/beta))

Alternative Name: TCR alpha/beta (TCR alpha/beta Products)

Background: The antigen-specific T cell receptor (TCR) is composed of either alpha and beta subunit, or gamma and delta subunit. Majority of T cells present in the blood, lymph and secondary lymphoid organs express TCR alpha/beta heterodimers, whereas the T cells expressing TCR gamma/delta heterodimers are localized mainly in epithelial tissues and at the sites of infection. The subunits of TCR heterodimers are covalently bonded and in the endoplasmic reticulum they associate with CD3 subunits to form functional TCR-CD3 complex. Lack of expression of any of the chains is sufficient to stop cell surface expression.,TCRA/B
