Description

CD8 (cluster of differentiation 8) also known as T8 and Leu2, is a surface glycoprotein comprising of α and β chains, which are expressed on immature thymocytes, mature CD8 T cells and some other cell types, e.g., dendritic cells. CD8 exist as either an α/β heterodimer in most thymocytes or α/α homodimer on a subset of γ/δ TCR-bearing intraepithelial lymphocytes. CD8 is an antigen coreceptor on T cells that associates with the T cell receptor complex during antigen presentation by APC cells through MHC class I. This antibody recognizes the 34 kDa CD8 α chain on the cell surface.

Recommended Usage

Each lot of antibody has been tested by flow cytometry staining. We suggest use ≤ 0.5 µg per million cells in 100 µl volume of staining buffer. Researchers are recommended to further titrate this antibody at the optimal concentration for each specific application.

Storage / Stability

Stored at 2 °C - 8 °C, protected from prolonged light exposure. DO NOT FREEZE.
