Anti-CD3e Monoclonal Antibody, Rabbit IgG, Recombinant

Description

T-cell surface glycoprotein CD3 epsilon chain, also known as CD3e, T3e, TCRe and IMD18, is a single-pass type I transmembrane protein. CD3E contains 1 Ig-like (immunoglobulin-like) domain in the extracellular region and 1 cytoplasmic ITAM (immune tyrosine activation motif) domain. CD3e, together with CD3-gamma, CD3-delta and CD3-zeta, and the T-cell receptor (TCR) alpha/beta and gamma/delta heterodimers, forms the TCR-CD3 complex. This complex plays an important role in coupling antigen recognition to several intracellular signal-transduction pathways leading to the activation of T cells. CD3e plays an essential role in T-cell development. In CD3e-deficient mice, all stages of T cell development and activation that are TCR-dependent were impaired, but not eliminated. Mutations in the CD3e gene are associated with immunodeficiency 18 (IMD18), an autosomal recessive primary immunodeficiency characterized by onset in infancy or early childhood. The CD3e gene has also been linked to a susceptibility to type I diabetes in women.

 

 

Gene Symbol: CD3E; T3E; TCRE; IMD18; Leu-4

 

NCBI Gene ID: 916

 

Uniprot Entry: P07766

 

Construct Details: Expressed as the combination of a heavy chain (HC) containing VH from anti-human CD3e mAb and CH region of rabbit IgG and a light chain (LC) encoding VL from anti-CD3e mAb.  Exists as a disulfide linked dimer of the HC and LC hetero-dimer under non-reducing condition.

 

Source: Mammalian cells stably expressing anti-CD3e heavy chain and light chain (in rabbit IgG format) and growing in chemical-defined media with no animal components. 

 

M.W.: Calculated molecular mass (kDa): 147 (49 kDa for a single HC, 24.5 kDa for a single LC); Estimated by SDS-PAGE under non-reducing condition(kDa): 150

 

Purity: >95% judged by SDS-PAGE under reducing condition (see the gel image above, labeled as DTT "+")

 

Formulation: Supplied at 1.0 mg/ml in sterile PBS pH7.4 without any carrier protein or preservative (the concentration determined by UV absorption with an A280nm of 1.0 for 0.73 mg/ml of IgG and verified by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining)

 

Endotoxin Level: <0.1 EU per 1 μg of purified recombinant protein determined by the LAL method

 

Biological Activity: Recognizes T cell surface marker CD3e by flow cytometry, IHC staining and fluorescent microscopy. Has the same binding specificity as anti-CD3e OKT3 mAbs and recombinant anti-CD3e mAbs, human IgG1 (SKU#MAB0818), and mouse IgG1 (SKU#MAB1899).
