CD8b Monoclonal / VioGreen / REA793
Product Details
| Description | Clone REA793 recognizes both alloantigeneic forms of the mouse CD8b antigen, a single-pass type I membrane protein also known as lymphocyte antigen 3 (Ly-3 or Lyt-3). The CD8 molecule is composed of two distinct polypeptide chains that pair on the cell surface either as a CD8aa homodimer or as a CD8ab heterodimer. These forms of the CD8 molecule are differentially expressed on functionally distinct CD8+ lymphocyte subsets. The CD8ab heterodimer is expressed on cytotoxic T cells and thymocytes. | Additional information: Clone REA793 displays negligible binding to Fc receptors. | |

About CD8b
The CD8 antigen is a cell surface glycoprotein found on most cytotoxic T lymphocytes that mediates efficient cell-cell interactions within the immune system. The CD8 antigen, acting as a coreceptor, and the T-cell receptor on the T lymphocyte recognize antigens displayed by an antigen presenting cell (APC) in the context of class I MHC molecules. The functional coreceptor is either a homodimer composed of two alpha chains, or a heterodimer composed of one alpha and one beta chain. Both alpha and beta chains share significant homology to immunoglobulin variable light chains. This gene encodes the CD8 beta chain isoforms. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct membrane associated or secreted isoforms have been described. A pseudogene, also located on chromosome 2, has been identified.
