CD4 antibody (Biotin)

Catalog No. ABIN2689241

Product Details anti-CD4 Antibody (Biotin)

Target: CD4

Reactivity: Rat

Host: Mouse

Clonality: Monoclonal

Conjugate: This CD4 antibody is conjugated to Biotin

Application: Flow Cytometry (FACS)

Brand: BD Pharmingen™

Characteristics: The OX-35 clone has been reported to react with the CD4 antigen on most thymocytes, a subpopulation of mature T lymphocytes (i.e. MHC class II-restricted T cells, including most T helper cells), monocytes, macrophages, some dendritic cells, and microglia. CD4 is an antigen coreceptor on the T-cell surface that interacts with MHC class II molecules on antigen-presenting cells. It participates in T-cell activation through it's association with the T-cell receptor complex and protein tyrosine kinase lck. The OX-35 clone has been reported to bind to a different epitope of CD4 than that recognized by the W3/25 and OX-38 clones. This antibody is routinely tested by flow cytometric analysis. Other applications were tested during antibody development only or reported in the literature. Two-color analysis of the expression of CD4 on rat splenic leukocytes. Lewis splenocytes were simultaneously stained with biotinylated anti-rat CD4 mAb clone OX-35 (right panel) and PE conjugated anti-rat CD3 mAb clone G4.18 (Cat. No. 554833), followed by avidin-FITC (Cat. No. 554057). The CD3-negative CD4-dim cells are the monocyte/macrophage population. Flow cytometry was performed on a BD FACScan™ flow cytometry system.
