General description

Monoclonal Anti-CD3 ζ chain (hamster IgG2 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma H146-968 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells (P3X63Ag8.653) and splenocytes from an immunized American hamster. The T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 ζ (CD3 ζ) chain is a subunit of the T-cell receptor (TCR) heterodimer. It consists of immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM) in its cytoplasmic domains.

Specificity

Monoclonal Anti-CD3 ζ chain recognizes human and mouse CD3 ζ chain.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-CD3ζ chain antibody produced in hamster has been used in western blotting.
It is also suitable for:
  • immunoprecipitation
  • immunocytochemistry
  • flow cytometry

Biochem/physiol Actions

The T-cell receptor (TCR) is responsible for antigen recognition and signal transduction, which are significantly part of the antigen-specific immune responses. TCR integrity is crucial for stimulating optimal and efficient immune responses, along with pathogen elimination and the elimination of modified cells and molecules. The ζ-chain subunit of the TCR mediates the receptor assembly, expression and signaling. Impaired TCR ζ-chain expression and T-cell function is known to be associated with various chronic pathologies, including cancer, infectious diseases and autoimmune disorders.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01M phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

For continuous use, store at 2–8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze at –20 °C in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free” freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation before use. Working dilution samples should be discarded if not used within 12 hours.
