NCBI Description

increased expression on mast cells is induced by nitric oxide; may play a role in inflammatory response [RGD, Feb 2006]

Uniprot Description

CD8A: Identifies cytotoxic/suppressor T-cells that interact with MHC class I bearing targets. CD8 is thought to play a role in the process of T-cell mediated killing. CD8 alpha chains binds to class I MHC molecules alpha-3 domains. In general heterodimer of an alpha and a beta chain linked by two disulfide bonds. Can also form homodimers. Shown to be expressed as heterodimer on thymocytes and as homodimer on peripheral blood T-lymphocytes. Interacts with the MHC class I HLA-A/B2M dimer. Interacts with LCK in a zinc-dependent manner. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Protein type: Membrane protein, integral

Cellular Component: cell surface; integral to membrane; external side of plasma membrane

Molecular Function: protein homodimerization activity; protein kinase binding

Biological Process: cell surface receptor linked signal transduction; T cell activation; T cell mediated immunity; positive regulation of calcium-mediated signaling; cytotoxic T cell differentiation; inflammatory response; defense response to virus

Product Notes

The CD8 ALPHA cd8a (Catalog #AAA211034) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's CD8 ALPHA can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Flow cytometry (FC/FACS). Flow Cytometry: Use 10ul of the suggested working dilution to label 106 cells in 100ul. Flow Cytometry: Minimum Dilution: 1/5; Maximum Dilution: 1/10. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the CD8 ALPHA cd8a for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "CD8 ALPHA, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
